Family Lake House Clean-Up Day

This last weekend Ellersicks from several states gathered to do yard work, to clean up, to repair, to spruce up, and to open up our family's lake house for the summer. The weather was absolutely GORGEOUS. We got an amazing amount of work done; were able to visit and catch up; we laughed a lot; and the kids even jumped in the lake for a swim. Perfection.

So for those of you sorry suckers who weren't there...check out the pictures...and feel guilty!! :)
