paradise??

Well we went to the lake today.. it was nice a little more busy than i like but EVERYONE had he same idea as us that with pending rain (forcasted for the rest of the week) it was time to get some sun and fun in before it was too late..

What i just HATE is these people who bring their pre-teen girls in barley there bikini's.. my boys turn into dorks and want to splash and rough house with the for mentioned girls.. i get annoyed (but i might even if they were in modest swim suits too) and am having to get after them every second instead of enjoying my book and shade and my snow cone i made before i left the house..... so Because I'm so not cool (OK that stung the first time i realized it but it's a badge or courage now!) i won't allow them to push off the girls from their blow up rafts or boogie boards.. and i insist they play nicely.. i do realize they only have an inkling of interest in these girls but any interest is what bothers me..

so now for good stuff I got some Farly decent pictures of the swimming area.. OK you can be jealous now...

OK so the first two are just of our swimming area.. i had a hard time fitting it all into one shot and i still don't think these represent the greatness of it all.. the rest are of the kids and our cute ducks.. they were tiny babies just a few weeks ago (I'm kicking myself now for not getting a shot of them when they were tiny) we are forbidden to feed them but people must because they come to the swimming area all the time.. I'm also constantly yelling at kids (not just mine.. cuz I'm just like that!) to leave them alone.. the momma has gotten a little protective and i have visions of someone loosing a limb to one of them.. but they sure are cute..


so I've sworn off the lake for the rest of the week due to the boys behavior today... and the whining i heard when i said it was time to go... but it's suppose to rain the rest of the week so really is that a punishment??? anyway we are planning on going to Arkansas end of next week so hopefully we'll get a few more times in before we leave..
ta ta for now..
