breakfast for dinner, days in swimsuits and piles of books decorating the floor

This is the stuff off a summer vacation on the lake. The worst picture ever but.. the necessities.

My suitcase is packed... but man what a perfect end to the week.  I stayed in my swim suit the entire day.  Almost finished book number three. Kayaked, water skiied and swam across the lake. It used to be a coming of age.  Now its a Michelle wanting to be just as cool as the boy cousins... and loving to swim. Dad kayaked beside me and we did it pretty fast. Checked off my bucket list :)


We had breakfast for dinner. Dad finished his cherry pie out of the pie tin it came from.  I read and I read and I read and I read.  Put sunscreen on four times, swam when it got to hot and fell asleep on the boat with my book covering my face. Slowly we moved the toys back to the garage. Cleaned up the messy kitchen and did what we could to empty out the fridge (hence the breakfast for dinner).  We talked about plans for being back next summer. And had the best weather for our last day we could ask for.


Time to go back to real life. And leave the long days of swimsuits, books, sunscreen and boats til next year. But it was so good. So good for me. So good for us.  So good to rejuvenate in this wonderful little place :) Im gonna go for one last run in the morning down to the bay.  We'll send the boat back, pack up and fly away from this little place.  And Ill be waiting to come back.


Thanks for another perfect trip.  Another time to relax and spend time together and love and laugh and be in this quirky little place where its ok to have breakfast for dinner and eat cherry pie out of pie tins and lay around in my swimsuit all day.  See ya next year! <3
