lakeside dinners

There is something so "summer" about last minute changes to evening plans and routines...a day's stress can melt away with the phrase "let's just go to the lake for dinner!"  In the winter I lean on routine  and rhythm...in the summer we fight it....looking for any excuse to get out of the house (maybe this is just our summer routine?).  We are lucky enough to have some friends that are just as  fly-by-the-seat-of-our-pants as we are....they are usually always up for dinner and the lake to wash away a days worth of sticky.  This week two mamas without kids played a little hookie and made some grilled pizza and met our men at the lake (babes in tow).  This was a good move for us mamas...who rarely get a moment to have a complete thought (let alone sentence) with each other.  And this lake...while it is far from salt water...fills me up and cools me down.
