Mother's Day and Chris' birthday happened to fall on the same day this year. Chris wanted to explore and get outside and I would have been happy to just sit and do nothing. So what did we do? We went to the beach! Yup, the beach. Didn't think Idaho had those, did you? Well, it is a version of a beach. We went to Lucky Peak reservoir where they have a sort of beach and water area set up for recreation. On the other side of the dam is boating, but down below is nice calm coooooooooooooooooooooooold mountain water with sprinklers and fountains. There is also a great grassy area with picnic tables and grills. We got there before most people, but by the time we left there were tons of people having cookouts and enjoying the beautiful scenery and weather.
We kept telling little lady we were going to go to a beach. She wanted to play in the kiddie pool in the backyard, so it took a lot of convincing to get her in the car. When she got out she started shouting "YAY!!! Good Yob (job)! You found it!" and clapping her hands.
I'd say she was pleased. :-)
Great warm, sunny day!
I got to do some lounging.
Lots of kids to play with.
Nice views.
Ultimately a very enjoyable day. We will certainly be doing LOTS of visits there this summer! Looking forward to when the water warms up too! Now I just need to find something to stuff my ever expanding body into for some water time. *SIGH* The joys of summer.......and pregnancy.
