This past Monday morning we were about to go meet the Carmacks, who were coming South from Oklahoma City, at Turner Falls, while Cody stayed home and finished up some homework. The kids were all in the car when I went to double check directions and Cody discovered the park was closed because of flooding! Thank goodness for the internet.

Well, you just can't waste preparations like that. So we had a mellow Monday at Grapevine Lake. The weather was amazing. I wanted to hang a hammock in between those trees... Even though I was feeling internally guilty about it being a Monday and thinking of all the responsible things I should be doing.

 but a week later I can't remember any of those things. 

Glad we stole this moment

We met a nice old lady with a big yellow dog who thought he was racing the boats. He would soar past us, then realize the boat waaay out on the lake was waay behind in the race so he would go back down the shore and start again. The kids looved watching him. They were all screaming with delight "Go Dog Go!" It was great.
