First of all, I didn't realize I was over 300 posts. Wow! I think sometimes we forget how much fun we can have right out our backdoors. After our shopping excursion to Aldi on Saturday (I will really have to do a separate post soon on how much I love this store, their fit and active brand, and the savings) we decided to go on a hike. Back last fall Tug went on a hike with his cub scout troop. We were going to re-enact. It wasn't too hot on Saturday.There is a path in Lake Norman State Park called the Lakeshore trail. It's 5 miles long, but with two small kids there is no way that was going to happen. We took towels and put them in swimsuits. Tug told us about this little beach area we could hang out on. Of course I forogt my camera and missed some great photo opportunities. We hiked probably 3/4 of a mile to a really nice beach area. They swam, we'll have to remember life jackets next time. Then we headed back. Next time I hope to stay longer and really make a day of it. It helped to get some of their energy out. Which brings me to my next point..................
I am OVER summer. Anyone who knows me knows I am not fond of increased temperatures. I never complain in the cold months. Bring on the fall. I am sick of the heat and I am sick of my kids driving me crazy. They have spent entirely TOO much time together this summer. They have been up 30 minutes this morning and they are already fighting. August 18th and back to school cannot get here fast enough.
