Family Day at the Lake

On Sunday Daddy finally had a day off and we took a family trip to the lake.  It was so beautiful and COLD!  This was a mountain stream fed lake i.e. melted snow and even at the end of July the water is still freezing.  But the kids had fun and even little Fiona enjoyed putting her feet in the water.  We went early and practically had the lake to ourselves and later when people started getting there we packed our stuff back in the van and hiked the loop around the lake.  So many pretty spots and the kids loved it!  We have said all summer that we wanted to take the kids to the lake and to go hiking and we were able to do both in one day!  And of course this post wouldn't be complete without pictures!

The kids even got Daddy in that cold water!
