This past weekend my friend invited me to her lake house at Tenkiller Lake near Talequah.
I had been to her previous lake house years ago (like 10) and really enjoyed it, so I thought it would be great to take the kids. She also has an almost 3 year old so it helped that they would all be playing together the whole weekend.
We left Saturday morning and had a day full of activities. First, we stopped by her mom's store on the way to her dad's new project, an old castle-looking building which he is turning into a wedding venue, then headed to the lake house where we quickly got into our swim suits and headed to the lake for some swimming. The kids really enjoyed swimming and exploring the dock area. Once her dad arrived, we went on a boat ride around the lake. Not only was it perfect weather, but there were not many people out on the water, so we had the lake all to ourselves!
We stopped by the lake marina where we got ice cream and soda pop, then headed back to the dock for some more swimming. After a while we came back in and went on a mule ride around the neighborhood and got to see some really cool propeller planes. The lake house is right next to the lake airport so we even got offered a ride on the planes by the neighbors, we kindly refused.
We had pizza for dinner and hung out around before bedtime.
Sunday we woke up and had breakfast off the grill. It was delicious and with the weather being cooler, the air was crisp and fresh. We went on another boat ride, and went swimming one last time before heading home and taking a long nap in the car (the kids). It was a great weekend!
