Bald Rock

I have been wanting to try hiking again with the girls. We tried in the past and the experience was not so pleasant for anyone involved, lots of crying, whining and complaining. 

This time things were perfect. We hiked Bald Rock. I had done this hike a few times as a kid with my stepfather. Bald Rock is still one of his favorite places to visit. 

The hike was the perfect terrain. At the summit we had lunch, explored and even picked some blueberries. 

To the Lake We Go

The 4th this year was pretty much a bust. SAD, it is my favorite Holdiday. It brings back so many fond memories of my childhood, and beyond that, IT'S NOT MATERIALISTIC. However this year it rained. We still enjoyed the day.

This beach day was a few days after the 4th and was just perfect :) Lake St George = BEST LAKE.

Happy Birthday

The girls told me the other day it was Bolt and Rogers birthday and they wanted to celebrate <3 So we bought cupcakes and party hats. When they love their stuffies it brings back many memories <3 #boltthenighthunter #rogertheraccoon 

Snappy Chat

With some convincing I downloaded the pet peeved app Snapchat. I realized shortly after downloading it, it's not intended for teeny boppers, it's invited for weirdos like me. Sending silly faces and updates ;) 

Here are some of my favorite snaps I received this week. 

Island Life

This weekend we were invited to join Sami and her family at her husbands families camp on Friendship Long Island. Sami and her boys spend tons of time on the island, it looks like a blast so we were excited to go when invited. Plus I haven't spent time with Sami in a long time. When I got to Sami's in the morning she told me Scott was going to drive one boat with all the kids which would leave us with the skiff, which she has never driven. She did great! Docked it like a champ. It was pretty comical when she tried to pick Scott up in his boat when we were back. 

On the Island we sea glassed, something people who's lives revolve around the ocean love to do.  We came home with quite a few treasures. We laid on the beach soaking the suns beautiful rays while the kids searched for crabs.  It was so relaxing and peaceful out there. The sound of the ocean crashing on the shore was almost enough to put me to sleep. It probably would have if it wasn't for having to keep one eye open due to littles dropping sand, crabs and everything else on us running away screeching and laughing. 

On the skiff 

 

Ahh what a day. The girls were so tired when got home. They were at KK'a birthday sleepover the night before. They are still tired! 

Keep going

Just finished for the night and its literally the first time I've stopped since 5:45 this morning. I worked 7:15-4:30. Came home made dinner, dishes, three loads of laundry, picked up,snuggled girls, ran, made strawberry muffins for my girlies, another load of laundry, washed the dog, vacuumed, showered and now bed. I can go to sleep feeling satisfied for sure. 

Two more days until my vacation starts. Whoot! I can do it. Work until three tomorrow, and 5:15 the next. Clean the bathrooms spotless, wash bedding and floors and then relax on my vacation.
