august thus far

it's been a good month :)

went out with friends on their houseboat one evening to do some fishing, grilling, and fellowshipping

 Brighton got to try her hand at the wheel :)

 Hanging out by the lake w/ dad while mom took a swim 

(no, i generally do not swim in the lakes up here...way too cold! but i figured i better at least try it out since i'll be swimming in the lake for the triathlon on Sunday!)

 i've been enjoying these beautiful roses from my hubby!

they are currently gracing my coffee stand :)
