Addison J. Barat: Cedar Lake Beach

What a weekend! Possibly the nicest weather we have had all Summer long. Following a week of torrential downpours, tornado warnings and flash floods, this weekend was filled with sunshine, blue skies, warm air and a mild breeze. It's even been cool enough at night to sleep with the windows open.

Addison and I went to the zoo with our good friend Natalie, and Mara and her kids - I think Addison has seen enough of the zoo this year. She has a hard time sitting still in the stoller, and constantly wants to get out and crawl around. If she sees a field of grass or a body of water, she squirms and wriggles and says "down!" Well, it sounds like down. The zoo isn't exactly the best place for crawling around, but we enjoyed the day anyhow.

Sunday, DJ and Addison and I hit Cedart Lake Beach, not far from our house. Addison ate about 10 handfuls of sand, crawled all over a kayak, splashed in the water and scarfed down her first PB&J sandwich with watermelon. She had a great time, and so did we!
