Iowa Day 4

This day I took a lot of pictures. This was the hottest day of our trip and it got up to +27 degrees (around 84 for any Americans reading this)! I decided to go check out the resort’s private beach with Kiera + Blake. On the back right side of the picture is the side of the hotel, close to where the outdoor mini golf course was and the indoor pool Lake Okoboji I liked seeing the water tower on the other side of the lake Proof that I was at the beach Thankful that we had picked up a couple of sand toys for the kids Random statue The water was freezing but that didn’t stop the kids from going in it My camera was my beach toy Chillaxin' on the beach with a cast I found an egg Love the mess! There was a nest up in the tree on the left The steps I had to go down to get to the beach I like the colorful rocks Blake crossing the road in between cabins We took the kids to the park after supper and drove around a bit. This aqua-colored house was just down the road from our resort and I always liked looking at it as we drove by. It’s for sale and I found it listed online for $449,000. This is the park the kids went to 3 times in Spirit Lake There was a splash park in the middle that wasn’t on yet The matching clothes I bought Blake at Walmart

Kiera made a new friend wherever she went. I love that about her.

The park was right by the lake I love their smiles after Jared gave them underducks Jared wanted to find a coffee shop, so I searched on the GPS and we went for a drive around the lake. The entrance to an area of houses The GPS led us here. There was definitely no coffee shop but we did see some beautiful, massive houses right by the lake. We got to watch a group of deer for a bit. We saw these all over the place and weren’t sure what they were. We found out later that they are docks. They pull the docks out for the winter and while we were there, they were starting to put the docks back out onto the lake. Nothing quite like watching the sunset on the lake.
