I spent a week at my inlaws house... spending time with extended family, having bonfires, canoeing down a couple rivers {love!!}, watching the boys play, and just relaxing. I always know I'm away from home when there's dirty clothes all over the bedroom floor I'm staying in. I'm OCD about my own house but when I'm away.... yeah, I'm away.
The last part of our vacation was spent camping. In July. In the Midwest. It was so incredibly hot that the majority of our time was spent talking about how hot it was. My Dad and Aunt surprised us with a couple boat rentals on Saturday so thankfully we spent a good chunk of the day on the water, but seriously... I'm pretty sure that July camping date was chosen in the middle of a Minnesota winter when everyone was dreaming of a warm summer. Overall it was a lot of fun, we had lots of laughs, deep conversations, and it was great to let our kids all play together with their family/friends they don't see often.
Also? I've never been so thankful for a/c and a shower in my life.
It was a very low-key vacation, but exactly what the doctor ordered.
Oh man, I can't even imagine camping in this weather - so hot! Lucas and I were talking last night about how blessed we are to be born in the age of AC - even at the cottage!
