For Labor Day we got together with some friends we hadn't seen for awhile and went to Roosevelt Lake up by Kettle Falls, WA. We are lucky to have friends to have fun with. The only thing that could have been better was the weather. We knew going at the end of the summer would be risky but we just didn't have a chance anytime sooner. It was a really busy summer this year. Anyway, at the beginning of the week I started looking at the forecast. On Monday it said it was rain all weekend. By Tuesday it had changed to just a couple of days. In the end it wasn't so bad. We got to the lake on Friday and it was sunny and warm. Probably mid 70"s. Saturday it was nice but started to cloud up. Saturday night it poured and Sunday the wind picked up. It was a little tricky getting off the lake with the wind. The waves were pretty big, it just added to the experience. We would go back in a heart beat. It was so much fun. We were told that we would be staying on the beach. I don't have a lot of experience with beaches other then the Oregon coast so that is what I expected. That's not what we got. It was perfect sand. Not as comfortable for sleeping we found out but nice to play in. We took our shoes off when we got off the boat on Friday and didn't put them back on until we got back to the dock on Sunday afternoon. The boys loved digging and building sandcastles. Ok, Weston tried to make a sandcastle but Mason kept smashing anything Weston put up. Mike helped him get one side made before Mason could get to it.

Weston burried in the sand, he thought it sounded fun until we put the sand on him. I had to take the picture fast before he sat up.
Mason wouldn't lay down so this is all we got on him.

This is what Weston liked to do the most. More then going on the "small boat" (Jet ski)
