Lake Martin

On Day 2 we ate breakfast outside and then headed out for another fun day on the water.

The boys couldn't wait to get outside

Lake Martin is so beautiful and the water is so clear and calm.

Since it was during the week there were hardly any boats on the water.

Funny boy.

Excited for tubing.

We beached the boat and got out to find more rocks and look around the shoreline.

Baylor was a great rock collector.  We found lots of big ones and then Mammaw is using them in a rock garden.

The water was warm!

Then we anchored out in the water and the boys played.

Lots of jumping.

We ate lunch on the boat.

A great place to eat.

Jump!

Then it was time to tube.

Fun.

Parker watching.

The water was perfect for tubing.

The two little boys were worn out and fell asleep on the ride back home.  

I stayed on the boat with them while they slept.  Then it was time to head in for the day and have dinner.  The boys were all worn out from so much fun.

Alabama Here We Come

We left our house around 5:30 am to head to AL.  The boys did great once again on the drive and slept for the first few hours of the drive which always makes it nice.  We got to AL around 2:30 their time and the boys were so happy to be out of the car.  When we got there we gave Pappaw his birthday present.

Baylor also made cards for both Pappaw and Mammaw.  They were happy to see them.

They could hardly wait to get their suits on and head out to the water.  Up first on their agenda, FISHING!

They basically wanted to fish nonstop.

Parker was ready to jet ski.

Daddy took him on a ride and he loved it.

Coop was excited to have his own fishing pole this year.

Pappaw and Coop.

Having fun.

They found little bait fish with a net and used them for bait along with hot dogs and ham.

They kept some of the little fish in a jar.

Coop's turn for a ride.

After dinner we went on a boat ride.

Such a pretty night on the water.

Parker was worn out and fell asleep on his ride.

Baylor got to captain the boat with Pappaw on the way back home for the night.

Summer Fun List

Summer has always been my most favorite time of year!  I love everything about summer, warmer and longer days, swimming, ice cream, vacation, flip flops, cook outs, family time, and the list goes on and on.  This year school starts earlier than ever and we are expecting a new little one but we are making the most of our days and time together and packing in lots of fun.  The boys helped me make our list and here is what we came up with.  We tried to make it pretty manageable and fun for all the boys!  

I'm excited about spending the summer days with my boys.

Happy Memorial Day!

 I love holiday weekends and having an extra day as a family.  We spent the morning at home and got work 

done and then headed out to spend the day on the boat.  Coop couldn't wait to get to Bailey.

Bax found a nice spot in the shade to relax.

 It was busy on the lake so we spent most of the day anchored and played in the water.

 Bax swam out and then made it was on the tube.

 Another meal on the boat.

 A big bite.

 Look I'm swimming.

 So proud.

 Playing.

 Coop went tubing with Tanya, Lauren, Gabrielle, and Kim.

 Jackson and Baylor had fun playing together.

My big boy.

Headed home after another great day on the water.
