Spending a day at the in-laws Hampton home, on Saturday, was just the best day I had this summer.  I could not have prayed for a better day.

The weather was a perfect 10.

The family was just as perfect.  

We arrived at the house about an hour late.  I tell you the traffic going north of Long Island was not to bad but it did have us arrive an hour late.  Not good.

      We immediately got into the swing of the day.  Sophie jumping off the back yard dock was quite impressive.  She is such a show off.      As soon as Emma saw Sophie do her dive, she wanted to get right down into the bay.  So my sister got her all ready to enjoy the water.

Did I tell you what a fish baby Emma is.

Well, she is a fish.Emma just went right in swimming with her floats.  Emma swims in her pool at home but this was the first time she ever swam in a bay.  It was cold.  So she didn’t stay in to long,  My son watched her very closely, so closely he wasn’t even watching out for his son…

 My eyes were always on the kids.  I am the watcher not the swimmer…I would never go into that fish infested water. Oh! No!

Now the real reason we did go up to the Hampton house was for my dad.

 My dad loves to fish.  So he got a chair and a fishing rod and sat there for around 5 hours.                                                                                                                                                       Boring! But this is what he loves to do.

My dad did hook some fish.  Not very large fish.  No sharks or anything, but these little tiny fishes make a nice soup. So my mother says.   

  Least I should forget to mention the best part of the day. We all got a chance to ride on the water jet ski  When I got on, my son was riding that ski so fast, and so hard, I really thought he was trying to get me to fall out of it.  But I took hold of his waist and knew if I go, he goes.  Ha!

Yes the day was a perfect 10.  A perfect summer day.  God blessed us as my family and my in-laws spent a quiet but exciting day with each other.
