June 25th & 26th 
Jared came home early on Friday and asked what plans I had for the weekend. I had none. We had been so busy lately running from place to place and the thought of having nothing to do sounded very dull. Maybe it should have sounded appealing to finally have nothing on our agenda, but it didn't. We needed something to do. I mentioned that I had heard about this lake near by that had a beach. So Jared looked it up, realized it was a State Park and decided to throw all our camping stuff together and see if we could luck out with a camping spot.
The lake was 45 minutes away from our home, once we arrived the two available spots that we had called about were taken and the beach was already closed for swimming. But we still made the most of it. We played at the park, ate Ramon Noodles on the picnic bench, and I played with my camera. Loved it.

Zachery found this rock and carried it around for a good 5 minutes.No one was allowed to touch his rock!
We got the kids a treat on the way home.Needless to say, we had three messes kids when we arrived home.
The next day, as promised, we went back to the lake for a swim. It was a lot of fun. The swimming area was roped off and went up to 4 feet deep. It was mostly in the 2 1/2 feet deep range to 3 feet, perfect for the kids. There were also a lot of water play structures.
We had a blast!

Jen, those first few pictures you posted of the lake with the reflection of the trees are absolutely gorgeous. You should enter them in a contest. Our county fair has a photography contest every year. You should check into the fairs in your area!
What beautiful pictures! Don't you love lakes! It looks like you guys are having a great summer!
