A Full Heart

Our daughter and her two children were over for this last weekend.
Even though it was barely 50 degrees out we couldn't keep the kids out of the lake!  This was taken before 10 AM in the morning.
If you're wondering what Starlet and Lambert are
looking at, it's this bottle. I had this crazy idea to
put a message in a bottle with our phone number, in the hopes that someone far, far away would call us and let us know were they found. The only problem was the waves kept bringing it right back to us!
We had a lot of fun throwing it out and watching it come back to us.
We had campfires and marshmallow roast.
This photo I got of Emily was her busy photographing us.
We were rewarded with a beautiful sunset.
Then lastly we all cozied in with a heaping bowl of ice cream and a good movie. I don't know if the g'kids liked it, but it sure had Tim and I  laughing
up a storm.
We hated to see them go, but we both had to admit we were zonked after they left! We both hit the recliner chairs with a hot cup of tea for most of the remainder of the day. We must be getting old.
Do you think?

  3. What a wonderful day. And I know how you feel about being tired after they go home, our grandkids are 3 and 5 and certainly very active.

  18. Don't you love kids, they are not concerned with the things that concern us, like the temperature!
    Sounds like you had a wonderful, but tiring day.
    I love the sunset photo!

  21. What a wonderful time that would have been. It woudld be awesome if your "message in a bottle" ended up somewhere exotic, and whoever found it, let you know.
    I would love that.

    The sunset is beautiful!!!!
