Bartlett Lake

My brother-in-law is very into fishing and does lots of tournaments and has been wanting to take us and the kids out for a while now so last Sunday we finally got it together and planned a trip out to Bartlett Lake. It is about an hour from our house but a really pretty drive as you start to get out of town. I wasn't sure how it was going to go but it ended up being a lot of fun. He took us on his fishing boat to the other side of the lake and we set up a little canopy on the beach and hung out with the kids. They loved splashing around and even did some jumping off the boat. Cameron loved the boat ride over and you can see it in the video below. Aspen and Everly loved the sand and snacks, haha. The water felt great and even when not in the water it felt very comfortable in the shade. My brother-in-law even helped Teddy catch a fish which was super cute. We hung out for a couple of hours but left in time to feed the girls lunch at home. I was not expecting to enjoy it that much and am looking forward to more trips this summer. It also made me even more excited for our family reunion trip to Lake George, NY which we leave for in about 2 1/2 weeks. The kids are going to have so much fun! Lots of pics and a quick little video:
