Last week, we went to Cave Mountain Lake for the first time with our friends, the Chittums. They had been telling us how fun the lake was for kids and so we made plans to meet there on Brent's day off.
It was great area for the kids. Even when they walked out a few feet the water was only up to their waists. Here is Rachel practicing her swimming underwater.
Bethany had fun playing at the water's edge.
They also liked the sandy beach and took turns covering each other in sand.
More fun playing in the lake!
Bethany had fun trying out her new float from Nana for her birthday. It was really nice because the float were worked even in really shallow water so she could actually sit right beside me in the water's edge and pedal the float around with her feet.
Carter took a turn in it too. The big kids liked it also. I laughed a lot watching Bekah and Tucker. Bekah would get in the float and Tucker would push her around in the float for awhile and then they would switch and she would push Tucker around in the float. They did this for quite awhile!
The big kids had a lot of fun looking for creatures in the lake too. They found several tadpoles and the dads found a newt and a crawfish too.
Here are their tadpoles. They were starting to get their back legs but still had their tail too. Meet "Ella" the Tadpole that Rachel is holding.
We had a fun afternoon at the lake. Thanks, Chittum family, for telling us about the lake and planning a trip with us. It is definitely a fun place for the kids and hopefully,we will get to go back again sometime!
