Life is good at the lake! We loved this trip so much and we were blessed with beautiful weather, a clean house to stay, sweet rental hosts, and relaxing family time. And yummy food on the Blackstone too! Have you stayed for a week or weekend at a lake? I think we are hooked! 💕 Cathy
Scott loves to take his coffee out on the kayak and paddle around the cove in the mornings. It’s one of his favorite things! He loves being at the lake so much!
This looks like a great place to spend the weekend with family! I am glad you decided to bring us along after all. You have a beautiful family. I love to see you praying as a family. 🥰 Thanks for sharing your family time with us. Have a wonderful day! XO
Hi Lesa! Thank you for coming along with us to the lake and leaving this super sweet message for me! You are so sweet and I’m so thankful that we met through the laundry collab! I hope you have a wonderful and happy day as well! 💕 🥰 Cathy
On Friday morning, the hosts were taking care of something at the house while we were on the dock. I didn’t have my bathing suit because I had just woken up and gone down to the dock with my nightgown/robe/slippers. The water was calling me so I jumped in with my nightgown on 😉 I loved every minute of being in the water!
The house was so clean when we arrived. Usually I spray all bedding down with Lysol and I bring my Lysol spray cleaner in case I need it for kitchen/bathroom. I didn’t need either at this house! We were so impressed with how clean it was!
I live in the mountains just less than 50 minutes away from there. The lake is one of the better things around and in the mountains. Btw I’m in ocean isle right now!
What a beautiful, relaxing family weekend! We used to live on the lake and it was like being on vacation every single day! Love that y'all had this time together.🏖
Hi Molly! Wow you used to live on the lake?!?! Why did you stop living on the lake?! Lol That sounds so wonderful 😊 thank you for being here, always coming back to spend time here and for always commenting! I love seeing your name pop up! Are you doing good? Getting ready for fall? 💕
I couldn’t kayak or paddle board because of my back. But I sure did enjoy floating around on the tube, and floating around in the water while holding or wearing a life jacket. The water felt so wonderful and when I was floating in the water while holding a lifejacket, I used bicycle legs to take me out into the cove where I could see more of the mountains and it was stunning!
I got me some Hershey cotton candy ice cream with whipped cream and sprinkles on top one night while we were out. I missed getting a picture I guess I was enjoying it so much lol! I loved it!
Thanks for your your videos! You’re a delight to watch and listen to! It takes a lot of work I’m sure to keep it up along with taking care of your sweet family. I’m loving the vlogs and hauls especially. Just got back from the Thousand Islands and it was so charming! I’m from Canada but have spent most Summers along the East Coast and haven’t been to the places you’ve mentioned so thank you for sharing! Keep being the light, Please keep the Bible verses at the end or start of each video. They’re a blessing 💜

Hi Sarah! Welcome to Living Gratefully! I’m so glad you are here! Yes, that’s his fave thing to do at the lake - go out in the morning while it’s quite and have his coffee on the “boat”. Thanks for being here!! 💕 Cathy
Drew and Taylor and Scott had to do all the lifting with packing and unpacking the car, carrying the cooler and kayaks and paddle board down to the dock, etc. I was so thankful that the kids were able to help Scott since I couldn’t! 💕

Scott loved sitting on a life jacket while floating around the water, and then he used another life jacket as a “table” or something to lean on.
