Fun on Lake Lanier

Last night our good friends, the Barr's, took us out on Lake Lanier in their new boat. What fun we had! It was a beautiful, hot afternoon, just perfect for a day on the lake!
Getting ready to push out...
Jason took us to a little cove they recently found and we anchored not far from a private beach. My kids had never swam in a lake, so after a moment of hesitancy, they all jumped in. Shortly after we arrived, another family came boating by and asked if we minded if they used the picnic table that was on the beach. We didn't care, so they unloaded their things and it wasn't long before our kids were swimming and playing with the kids from the other family (they had 8 children with them). Abbi made a little friend named Esther and they had so much! Esther's is a homeschool family and we made sure to trade phone numbers before leaving.

Amelia is the baby I've been watching 3 days a week since November.
We had such a great time of swimming, playing, eating and Bible study.

I have no doubt that all of the children (and adults) were ready for bed!

  1. We're glad all of you could come and look forward to the next time. Sara and I found another great spot last night. We're heading out again this Wednesday. You always have an open invitation to go with us.
