OUR LAKE VACATION!

We are beach-lovers, so living in the Midwest makes vacation a little tricky! But we have visited Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri twice now, and, while it's not the REAL beach, it's not a bad spot for a getaway! We got Halle some sunglasses, called "Wee Shades" to protect her eyes (although she can't be in the sun really until 6 months). Besides being protective and smart, we also think they're pretty cute. She got to take her first swim and seemed to enjoy playing in such a giant bathtub! 

One restaurant we love at Lake of the Ozarks is called Dog Days. Last year we took a picture in this same spot, but it was just the two of us. This year we got to take another picture, with a new little addition...what a joy! Sad Buck couldn't join us, but he was taking his own vacation at the luxury "Country Estate Kennel" back home :) Oh and by the way, my sunburn wasn't nearly as bad as it looks in the picture! (Although I know any sunburn is bad these days - more sunscreen next time).
