Lake Norfork

We returned yesterday from our long anticipated annual/ semi annual trip to Lake Norfork in Arkansas. We went w/ a group of our good friends and had a spectacular time. The weather was rainy and cool the first day, but we were still able to get on the boat by noon. The weather was gorgeous the second day. Lake Norfork is the best kept secret (shhh.....keep it a secret). There is NO crowd. The water is WARM (it had to be 86 degrees) and the staying is cheap. We rented a speed boat and pontoon boat and on of our friends brought a jet ski. We were the only ones to bring kiddos (Henry stayed w/ grandma) and they had a fantastic time! They got to tube, jet ski, and swim, swim, swim! We anchored the pontoon in the middle of the lake and swam around it. And, when we returned to our trailer for the night the boys went right to bed and the rest of us adults hung out til late in the evening. Super fun!

Looks like you guys had a BLAST!! Looking at your photos makes me wish we would have gone to our cabin this summer!:( Love being on the lake and boating/jet skiing.
I am glad the boys did so well and that everyone enjoyed it!

What great fun! You did a fantastic job capturing the whole experience. I would have never pictured it all quite right (trailer and all).
