These are the sort of days I hope they remember when they think back on their childhood(s).
Lazy days on the lake. Seeing who can do the best canon ball or flip off the boat. It’s part of what summer should be, right?

Getting Away
This weekend we packed up the car and headed down to Burnside, KY for a little relaxing on Lake Cumberland. Like many weekends before it, we had an amazing time boating and swimming, just having some good quality family time.
Here are some pics I snapped over the course of the weekend. I’ll be writing more about our trip soon over on Family Friendly Cincinnati, if any of you are considering a trip down. We’ve been coming down for 5 years and I can’t say enough great things about it.
SM rides up front as we head out on the Lake Friday morning.
Marty let’s BMan help drive the boat through a no wake zone.
Everyone loves to ride on the tube! SM gears up for his first ride of the season.
Just because he’s little, doesn’t mean he’s not fierce! The BMan gets ready to tear it up on the Lake.
After a long day on the boat, the boys settling in to watch movies and play Angry Birds on the iPad (we borrowed one for the weekend… One word= Amazing)
It Just Sucks
This weekend we head down to Somerset, KY to spend our last weekend boating on Lake Cumberland before school starts, and it sucks! It sucks not because I don’t love school and want my children to have great educations, but because it means that summer is coming to an end. It means that before you know it the water will start to turn cool and the leaves will change. This all leads to putting the boat up until next year. It’s just a bummer.
Boating and being down and Lake Cumberland is a big thing for our family. If you read my blog regularly, you are probably sick of my boating posts, but I’ll tell you, it’s how we get away from it all. It’s how we focus on just being together – no distractions, no computers, no phones, no soccer practice. Just the four of us hanging out, having fun, boating, playing board games, roasting marsh mellows and making memories that we’ll have for a life time.
So this is why it sucks that school is starting.
Family Time
This weekend we’re heading down to our favorite place – Lost Lodge in Burnside, KY- for a little down time and some boating. With work being so busy and having just gotten back from four amazing days at BlogHer, we need a little family time.
