Children's laughter and the beauty of nature..it doesn't get any better than that. Except for my early morning tee time with Ben. I'm golfing for the first time in about 18yrs. Should be interesting. My 15 year old niece, Hannah, will be driving the golf cart. She just got her driver's permit. I can guarantee, the morning will be comical. More family will be trickling in tomorrow. When all is said and done, there will be 65 of us.
The ironic part of where we're staying is we have a fire pit in the backyard of our townhouse, the lake makes up part of the landscape I get to witness on a daily basis. Wood is supplied daily. Chairs are set up around the stone perimeter. Ben is in heaven...he can actually make a bon-fire everynight, with no one getting mad, or worried. He cleans up debris everyday from the previous fire and preps for the fire he will make at dark. Today, I took him on a walk to pick up twigs, I told him he needed small kindling. S'mores were made again and we will repeat this ritual tomorrow night....simple pleasures.
Sounds like such a wonderful time! I'm so glad you & Ben are having this time with family and relaxing... yay for nature and laughter! :)
