weekend at the lake

we went up to lake gaston to spend the holiday weekend with some friends at their lake house. the girls went jet skiing, tubing, fishing, swimming, and maya even jumped off a boat house roof top into the lake! needless to say, everyone was exhausted from such a fun weekend.... but we are gearing up for school to start tomorrow!

our trip to the rose garden

the girls and i are going to do something fun with the few remaining days of summer we have left. maya has camp next week and then school starts the week after that! here's our first day of the adventures...
