Last Night in the Cottage :(

How do you end an incredible week? How do you bring closure to 7 days of late nights, laughter, lake play and luscious meals? We did it with a whole family outing to a pizza restaurant and then a campfire on our beach.
.
Ella and Uncle Chris were BFFs at this dinner. I loved seeing how happy both my girls were to play with and laugh with their wonderful uncles-- Kyle, Eric, Chris and Dan.
.
Well, of course, we roasted marshmallows and made s'mores! The senses of this night were so ideal: the pink sky, the blue lake, the colors of our beach, the warmth of the fire, the laughter and ooey gooey taste of the perfectly roasted marshmallow.

Christopher even treated us to our own July 3 fireworks show. He bought a whole load of fireworks on the ride up and launched them on the beach for our viewing pleasure. Sitting on a big rock by the lake listening to big booms, the kids' screams and the waves lap was better than any show we could have driven to and will remain a favorite 4th of July memory for us!
