Lake Bucky 2013

We decided to come up to the lake last night when I got home from work, not sure it was the best plan, but we made it. We pulled into the resort around 130am. The hope was that the kids would sleep most of the way making it a quiet quick trip. Well, Rowan did sleep most of the way, Eddie on the other hand despised the idea. He maybe slept one hour and whined after that. It came to a point where I had to climb in the back seat and prop myself up between the 2 carseats and hold him for him to sleep and stop whining. Clearly he just wasn't comfortable and eventually overtired.

 

That being said, we all slept quickly, Ed and Bill went out fishing early, and the rest of us were up shortly after ready for the day at the lake. The kids both got new fishing poles from Karen and Doug, so they had a blast playing with those. The water was a bit chilly at first, but the sun and heat helped us to get in and swim. Rowan had a friend to play with, Lilly. She is a little older, but it didn't matter to either of them. There were 2 little fish together in the water.

Ed and the kids did a little last minute shopping before we headed up north. They picked up a tube to use with Grandma and Grandpa's new boat. Rowan loved it! She wanted to go with Ed first, but then she let me go too. Eddie wasn't so interested, so we didn't push it this year.

Then after dinner the first night, we headed out on the water to do a little fishing with Ed and Grandpa. The kids were actually more patient then I thought they'd be. Of course we didn't last as long as Ed and Bill would have liked, but it was a fun experience. I think Ed and I were the only ones that caught a fish. And we left the handling of the fish to Ed as well. No keepers anyway.
