Grilling Out

Sunday, September 5th we went to Lake Winona about 45 minutes away and grilled out with friends. It is one of our favorite places to go when the air starts getting cool. It is pretty and very quiet and peaceful. The only noises you really hear are the sounds of nature and 4-wheelers every now and then. The lake is a public water supply reservoir so you can't swim in it. The park that we grill out at is by the overflow spillway so it is all fenced in with no water access at all. It was nice for the girls because they could run and play in the large field, but they didn't understand why they couldn't "fwim". We had a good time and enjoyed several hours of the nice fall temps that came in for the weekend!


Lexyn swinging, notice the dirty face. She really enjoyed her BBQ chicken. She also enjoyed spilling her red koolaid all over her shirt which is why she is wearing a too small pajama shirt that was in the back of the car!



Brittyn swinging, she also enjoyed her BBQ chicken, and digging in the dirt.




The 3 buddies swinging; Macee, Brittyn, and Lexyn




I didn't think it would be long before she would attempt to climb the fence.




She made it to the top. I wasn't far behind because I was a nervous wreck. The drop off on the other side of the fence was about 20 feet to the water.

She thinks she is big stuff, holding on with one hand

Sissy had to get her turn in too!

Holding tightly onto their hands as we crossed over the walking bridge. The poles were too far apart and I knew my dare-devil girls would attempt to climb through. Oh it makes my stomach flip just thinking about it.

We had a great time, and can't wait for more fall weather to come so we can go again.
