Sunday, September 21st

Sunday was a lazy day.

The fog was very thick in the morning. So much so, we couldn't even see the dock when we woke up.

We had breakfast and the girls played with the presents that Anna got the night before.

My mom and I worked on patterns for Celie. She has gotten so big that regular clothes just do not fit her that well and it is difficult to find clothes that have an elastic band. So, my mom, who is an excellent sewer, was helping with various patterns to make sure that we had the right fit, etc. She also gave me some pointers for Celie's Halloween costume. She is going to be Pocahontas.

Sarah stopped by for a little while to see the girls and us. My mom headed back up north and then Sarah left. We were on our own and the fog was lifting and the sun coming out.

Bob took the girls out to fish & play. I snapped some pics of them and a whopper (blue gill - blurry). I also captured some seagulls on the floating dock and swans on the lake.





While Bob was watching some football, Anna sneaked up on his lap and decided to give him a big 'ole kiss.


Our friends Allan & Jen came out with their 6 month old daughter Richelle. We chatted and the girls loved trying to make Richelle laugh. Then Tammy & Reagan stopped by and the girls immediately were playing with Reagan.

Allan & Jen headed home and it was almost dinner time. Not feeling like cooking, we asked Tammy if she wanted to join us for dinner somewhere. So, we all headed to Thompson's for dinner. Celie enjoyed having some pie with her new/old buddy Reagan.

After dinner, we headed back to the cottage to enjoy a great sunset on the lake and then gather items to pack up for our trip back home.

The girls were exhausted by their many visitors and tons of fun. They were sleeping within 2 minutes of going to bed.

On Monday morning, we got up, had breakfast and packed up the van. We said goodbye to the nice cottage and headed back home to OH. It was a GREAT weekend filled with fond memories.
