Lake Fun!

Sunday we did not have PM Service at church....so we headed to the Lake! About 4:15 PM we sent the following text message:

"Swimsuits. Check. Volleyball. Check. Ladderball. Check. Bocce Ball. Check. Bush's Tea. Check. Subway Sandwich. Check. Headed to the Lake! See you there!"

It was HOT when we arrived. Almost unbearable. But we stuck it out for the first hour, and so glad we did! While we were driving, we noticed 'rain' clouds forming overhead. We kept an eye on them, and before we knew it, we could hear the rain hitting the top of the picnic areas to one side of us. The sound was faint but it got louder and louder and the rain got closer and closer. Finally - it was raining!!!! It was so cool to 'hear' the rain coming. Everyone around us, on the lake, in the boats, in the parking lot (everyone, everywhere) started shouting, dancing...etc. over the rain. Very cool moment.

We definitely rejoiced in the rain and went on with our lake fun.

I took no pictures. Words will have to do.

Boat. Intertubing. Unknown waterfall. Sand vollebyall. Laughter. Mud slinging. Sand castles. Amazing sunset. New friends. Lasting Memories.
