WISCONSIN - The Lake

Nothing can beat the beauty of Wisconsin in the summer on the lake. I'm sure my children will look back at their summers visiting Grandpa and Grandma Carlsruh as some of the best times of their lives. They have gobs of cousins, lots of fun activiites, and hours upon hours of swimming, fishing, and boating on the lake. No wonder we come visit every summer for weeks on end!

This year, we had this amazing fun raft to play/rest/lay out on. It was amazing!

There's so much to do on the lake. Cora won't set foot near the lake, which I prefer. There's a canoe and a fishing boat. There's plenty of blow-up toys and a dog that likes to get in on the fun.




Abe took Ken's GoPro out on the lake and took these amazing pictures. He's really good!


On our last day with cousins at the house, we took a quick last dip in the lake. It was SO COLD. But the kids wanted to try out the GoPro in the water, and they had a blast. The sun was setting as they swam, and since it wasn't a hot day, there were no bugs outside. It was an ideal evening.
Emma and McKenna took some cool pictures (I love the shot of McKenna from under the water. I also think the bubbles look really awesome). 

 Cora, on the other hand, would have none of the water. She put her feet in and cried! And since Cora always gets her way, she got to sit on mom's lap and watch the kids swim instead.
