The school always rents a pavilion out at the lake on the Tuesday night before school for a picnic dinner with the staff and the school committee members. It is what it is.
Yesterday was perfect weather-wise and I promised the girls we would enjoy one last summer day. I had one small (big) thing that needed to be done at school, and I had it done by noon, so we ate a quick bite of lunch and then headed out to the lake.
They have a 'beach' there with sand and so we took our chairs and changed into our swimming stuff and played in the lake and at the park that is on the beach for hours before anyone else from school arrived. It was just a perfect day. The girls spent about half the time trying to catch minnows with their hands. It was cute to watch them. They are still of the age where they can play and chase butterflies without worrying about who might be watching.
And I got to sit in the sun with the sand in my toes reading a book. It was delightful.
