August Recap ~ A Few Months Late

Plain and simple August ROCKED.
 August totally rocked. The weather was fantastic and we were on our boat every single minute that we could be. We used it more this August then we did all last summer. We made some amazing memories this August that will be cherished always.
This August our friends from NH made the trip up and we had a fun filled NNY weekend. We started with a shrimp boil followed by a day on Lake Ontario and an evening of kids playing and parents relaxing.


 Pregnant with "double rainbows".
 Roland went out of town with his siblings in August for the PGA so the kids and I hit our favorite dinner spot while Dad was gone.
 We spent tons and tons and tons of time on the boat. It was truly lake love this August.
 We celebrated our anniversary with Brad and Krista this year. We went to Ryan's Lookout and had an amazing dinner. We laughed because we hadn't been out to dinner together in probably 10 years.
 Seth and I hit Water Safari in August too.
 While we sadly counted down the days until Uncle J leaves we caught an Uncle Sam Boat tour in August too. It was really fun since we hadn't done it in many years. We played the role of tourist for a few hours.
 One weekend Kristen's sister Becky and fiance John came into town so we spent an entire day from sun up to sun down on the boat followed by a golf tournament the next day to support some friends of ours. This was the BEST weekend of the summer.

 We took Joan out for a farewell lunch before she headed to England.
 We took Sara out for a farewell breakfast before she left for Geneseo.
 Seth headed back to Beaver Camp for a week of day camp.
We worked on our Sand Bucket List and on a beautiful August day we walked over the TI Bridge, jumped into the River at TI Park and had a sweet treat at the Guzzle. It was my second favorite day of the summer.




Halloween in August was a hit again this year. We missed a friends BBQ because of it, but just couldn't be missed. The kids loved every minute of it.
We tried a new water park also. We took the kids to a super retro park in Fulton for the day. They loved it.
More and more and more boating. Our gas bill for the season was pretty out of hand, but we loved every minute of our time on the lake.
We entered a family 5K. The boys ran while Leah and I walked.
The finale was family camping. The rest of the family LOVED it, me not so much.
That was AUGUST and it ROCKED.
