We just got home from spending a week at our lake house. Some of our great friends from Orlando came up for the week. They brought their boat along with them so we had 2 boats, 6 adults, 5 kids (and one on the way), 2 dogs, and TONS of fun all week long.
Handley had a blast being up there with her friends. As soon as she woke up each morning she would start asking about her friends and make a bee-line for the living room to see who was there to play. Harper also enjoyed the week. There was another baby with us and I swear she knew they had something in common. As soon as I would sit them next to one another she would start "talking" and reaching out for her. So sweet.
Some of my favorite memories from the week were:
- eating yummy meals (thanks everyone for cooking all week...I don't think I lifted a finger in the kitchen)
- watching the girls have a real tea party together
- lots of princess dress-up
- Sydney and Duke (the dogs) trying their hardest to go with us so they could swim
- lots of girl talk
- the guys and their love of wake-boarding/wake-surfing (again and again and again)
- learning to play poker (I had great beginners luck)
- Wii bowling and the guys' obsession with Mario Cart
- watching funny movies
- lots of time swimming, tubing, riding around on the boat
- days spent at the waterfall beach
- lunch at the Tiki Hut on our last day
We are already looking forward to next year!
Between the 3 cameras we took what seems like a million great pictures so here are some of my favorites.
