Livin' the Lake Life...

Last month our little family took a week off to spend some time on the lake. We rented Buttercup on Lake Tippy again...
Weather was beautiful
Both girls spent countless hours tubing. Izzy even attempted to get up on skiis!
Sister secrets
Matt, Jill & Sammy joined us for a few nights. We spent a lot of time on the screen porch after the kids were asleep.
Buddies
Boating
Three McCullochs in baseball caps...it's how we roll
All. These. Stairs. Makes for loading and unloading the car a workout!
Turtle Hunting...
...was a success!
Tynan beach with the baby turtles
We then made the trek to Wisconsin for more lake time. But first? We had to make a stop at Woodman's and then a night at Michelle's house.
We also drove waaaaay far north to Minoqua to visit my college pal, Karen.
Krazy Karen Kay & Kelly!!!
Our final destination was Tomahawk to stay with Mike's Uncle John & Brenda
Our girls loved hanging with their "big kid" cousins on the lake, on four wheelers, walking the goats & fishing
Lakes in the North Woods are stunning


More tubing. I went with the girls a few times and they both asked me to stop screaming. Guess they are more brave than their mommy!



We spent 4th of July on the lake watching fireworks and then setting off hundreds of dollars worth of our own fireworks. Girls were enthralled.

Laney caught a fish within seconds of putting her line in the water!

Pretty sure we made tons of new memories that our family won't soon forget. Thank you to the Tynans and the Marcks families for being wonderful hosts to our family!
