Our family vacation week was spent in a wonderful lake house on Pistakee Bay in northern Illinois. We are extremely grateful to Abby and Neil's friend Jens for letting us use his beautiful home. It was large enough to accommodate all of us very comfortably, and even had a dining room table that was big enough for all of us!
Our "home away from home" for 5 days
Most of us arrived on Sunday afternoon, June 7. (Ben joined us the next day.) The cousins were so happy to be back together, and they couldn't wait to get down to play in the sand and water--without even changing into swimming suits.
We had lots of time to just relax and enjoy our beautiful surroundings and just being together, with just a few planned outings. The sandy area was not real big, but it was perfect for our three little beach bums.
Jet ski rides were a hit!

I think this old computer needs a rest---it's very s-l-o-w at getting my pictures uploaded. So I think I'll publish this before I lose it, and continue later with another installment.
