Taylor and Clayton wanted to make a trip to the lake before they headed to Uganda for the summer, and the available dates just happened to coincide with my birthday. We headed down to the lake on Sunday morning to join Grandpa Dean and Grandma Jeanne who have been hanging out at the lake for the past few weeks. It rained almost the entire trip down, but we were pleased to find the sun breaking out just as we arrived at the lake.
The weather wasn’t spectacular for our two days, but morning showers gave way to beautiful afternoons and evenings. We enjoyed some fabulous meals and desserts (Grandma Jeanne’s cinnamon rolls + Wendy’s chocolate cupcakes = Ecstatic Taste Buds) and a lot of fun conversation. Clay and I spent an afternoon at the bar at Applebee’s watching Manchester United fall to their cross town rivals while the ladies went to a movie. Of course, we also enjoyed a boat ride and sitting out on the dock.
Of course, it felt like the time was too short, but even a few days at the lake is worth the trip! It was a great way to spend my birthday.
