A day at the lake

We didn’t rent THE Lake House with the Petit family this year as the house has new owners and they are renovating it this summer. The Petits decided to rent a house on Sebago for a few weeks this summer. We opted to not rent with them this year but to save some extra money and save a few vacation days for future adventures. They are, however, kind enough to let us come and go from their camp. The family arrived Friday night and spent the night with us before moving into their rental Saturday morning.

Alec was psyched to have playmates and what a wonderful thing when they all (well, the younger 3) started playing together as if no time had lapsed from last summer.

And then it was time to load up and go find this new place.

It’s an interesting place.

The house is full of cat stuff. Crazy cat pictures and figures and just cat stuff. It’s creepy. I have a cat and I still find it creepy. It is THAT creepy! Other than the cat stuff it seems to be perfectly functional. It’s position on the lake and the amount of milfoil in this section of the lake is not ideal but for a few week in the summer. It is not so bad.

Alec and I pretty much immediately jumped in the kayak for a little paddle around.

And then I floated around while Alec played in and around the water.

On Sunday Erik and Alec went back out for the day but Erik, of course, didn’t bring the camera. We are home for a few days to work and then will spend some more time out there this weekend. It’s not quite like the last couple years  but next year hopefully the house in Bridgton will be available again and we will all be together again.
