We had such a fun weekend, the kind where you wish it would never end!!! During the day on Saturday we all slept in and then got some work done around the house. Then that afternoon the 3 of us ventured to Dexter to explore, get ice cream, and hang out at the little park at Mill Creek. Brett had so much fun throwing rocks in the water and walking under and over the bridges :-) On Sunday, Kyle spent the morning resealing our driveway, and then that afternoon we decided to check out a little lake called Pickerel. It was small, but the perfect size for a 3 year old little boy. We even ran into our photographer and his wife from our wedding!! Brett had the best time EVER building sand castles and swimming in the cool water. His swimming lessons definitely payed off because he was so much more comfortable in the water and bravely went where the water was up to his neck! He loved looking for fish too. We'll definitely have to bring a net next time!! We spent a couple hours at the lake,and then on our way home we stopped at Inverness Inn for a drink and some appetizers. It's a hole in the wall type place in the country where everyone seems to know each other, and you can't help but feel at ease when you walk in. The regulars consist of biker dudes, alcoholics, beach dwellers, and the deer and moose that adorn the walls. Back when I was in college my dad had a Harley and he took me out there on his bike a time or two. Those were fun times! Although we didn't drive in on a motorcycle this time, we fit right in in our wet beach clothes and flip flops. Brett was so tired from being at the lake, he sat there nicely for over an hour, drinking his lemonade, eating a cheeseburger, and licking his popsicle. It was a relaxing end to our busy day :-) Then on Monday we went over to my parent's house for a little while, and that evening my cousin and his wife came over for a BBQ. Really, it was the perfect holiday weekend and I couldn't have asked for anything more.
