Family Lobster Fest

Each year we have a friends and family gathering at Lake Winnipesaukee.

During the day, we meet at our camp and go boating, waterskiing, tubing and swimming. There are several boats to make sure everyone has a chance to do something in or on the water.

It's fun to get together with my cousins. We try pushing each other off the raft, tell jokes and make up scary stories.

At night, we head up to my uncle's house to eat lobster and steamers. I've never seen so many lobsters in one place before. If you don't like lobster, you can always find something else because there's a ton of food.

It's a lot of fun, there are a lot of kids, games and music. One year, my sister, cousin and I sang some songs. It's like one giant party that has something for everyone.
