Summer Fun

July has come and almost gone I posted a bunch of photos under Summer Vacation and Summer Vacation II. Some of these were up north and some at the beach in Grand Haven. There are some cool pictures of the boys and summer fun.

Summer Vacation

Footprints. They are a moment in the sand that will soon be washed away. Shaun’s little footprint is quickly resembling mine and will soon be the print of a teenager.

I look forward to summer vacation all year and this year was a great time with two weeks away from work and the daily grind. Shaun and I spent most of our vacation at my parents place at Silver Lake. Shaun was lucky to have friends his age to play with most of the time at the lake. They got to swim, tube and of course play video games.

We had a chance to spend some time golfing. Unlike last year it wasn’t 90 degrees every day and it was very pleasant on the course. We both made our share of good shots and bad and had a great time. Shaun is really starting to hit some good shots and he is learning course management. You forget the bad shots and remember the good ones. We both made some awesome putts and some great tee shots.

The kids had a ball in the water and it was difficult to drag them out. The boys are all doing well with their swimming and having fun together. It is hard to believe that we are almost half way though July already. Shaun and I will have one long weekend for my birthday the week after next and will spend it at the lake.

The sun sets on the summer vacation with a sense of longing. I can’t believe that this was my 41st summer and that 42nd birthday is just around the corner. I hope Shaun’s 10th summer vacation at the lake was something he will remember the same way I remember my summers at the lake.

Summer at Silver Lake is just a good thing.
