Last weekend we had the opportunity to go stay in an awesome lake house with all of Robert’s immediate family. We had such fun swimming, boating and playing with the cousins! We didn’t do much sleeping but that’s ok – it was worth it!
The setup was great – the perfect amount of beach for the kids to play on with plenty of shallow water.
Everyone had fun playing with water guns, digging in the sand and paddling the kayak!
Maxwell did really good in the water and got braver and braver as the weekend went along. He loved “swimming” on his belly with either me or Robert and kicking his legs as hard as he could! But, after an early morning wake-up and a few hours of swimming, he looked like this…
ha! He then went on a boat ride and totally fell asleep. His heavy eyelids just couldn’t stay open with the hum of the Whaler motor lulling them closed!
After his nap, Spencer got to hang out in the lake too in his inner tube! He was happy as could be…
and had some pretty awesome post-lake hair to show for it!
We loved getting in lots of play time with family…
There’s just something so great about being at the lake. Covered in sunscreen all day and going to bed without a shower because you’re just too tired. Having an afternoon beer while floating in the water and then grilling up some ribs that night. Chatting with family on the porch and letting the kids stay up late. Good times.
Before we left on Sunday, we tried to get a cousin picture and…well…here’s what we got!
ha! Mine are definitely not at the age where they pose nicely for pictures!
Thanks for letting us make some fun memories Jenny and Ronnie!! It was a blast!
