Dreher Island State Park
We are very fortunate to live in an area that has a plethora of rivers, lakes, State/National parks, not to mention the ocean and beach all within in a 2 hour drive. So during the day yesterday, while Lover Boy was at work, I took everyone out to Dreher Island State Park. This park is on the same lake that we ride our bikes to and hang out at the beach during the summer.
I love that my kids are really warming up to their uncles (1. my kids are super shy 2. Little Finch refuses to talk to every.single,boy/male except her brother, daddy and Papa). Like always, here are a few of my favorite photos from the day!
