Day with Friends

Yesterday we had the privilege of visiting with several friends. Our day started off by going to a park day with our old homeschool group in northern Michigan. Unfortunately, I neglected to take pictures of that part of our day, but we really enjoyed catching up with friends!

 
After our time at the park, we stopped by a friend’s house to see their garden. It was definitely an inspiration to me! I would love to have a bigger garden someday.
We received the grand tour of the garden and the chicken coop (another thing on our family bucket list: owning chickens.)
I loved their pumpkin patch!
After our stop there, we continued on to another friend’s house to visit with them, and go swimming in the lake behind their house. The view from their yard is lovely, and so peaceful.
She fixed a delicious “snack” of chocolate cherry cake, pretzels, carrots with dip, crackers with nasturtium dip, lemonade, and water. Now that’s what I call a snack! J
We had a great time swimming in the lake even though it was a little cool out. We swam out to a little sandbar, floated on the tubes, and played a long game of Marco Polo.

We got out to dry off and had some more snacks. Then we played sharks and minnows for a little while before we had to leave. We had a wonderful time of fellowship with all our friends! Thank you all so much for having us over!
