OMG---What a FUN weekend!!!Part 6

I think the funniest part of the weekend is when Patrick and his friend, Sasha, decided to go fishing with the little John Boat (spell?) and one oar.  They didn't get very far when we pulled out in the big boat and they asked for a tow to the other side of the lake.  I was just positive this wasn't going to end well...but  I was wrong. 

Looks kind-of dicey, huh?

 

But oddly enough it worked!

OMG---What a FUN weekend!!! Part 5

After boating and jumping, we just hung out in the water relaxing.

That's me jumping off the 1.5 foot dock (NOT 20 feet above the water!).

Relaxing before dinner.

...and trying to get back in the water....in clothes.  Huh. 

OMG---What a FUN weekend!!! Part 4

After jumping off the dock into the water 1.5 feet below became hum-drum, the kids moved up to the upper level of the dock to jump.

Including my 4-year-old....who went back and did it again several more times!

Ellie was saitisfied after one jump....

And then it was Tim's turn....

And last up...Jill!

Judy and sweet Granger...

OMG---What a FUN weekend!!! Part 3

After the boat ride pretty much everyone was ready to cool off in the water.  Bill stopped the boat so the kids could hop off the side and swim in to the dock.

Quincy and Jack were the first in...

...but Ellie wasn't far behind.

Once back to the dock the real fun began...jumping off the dock into the lake....

...and seeing how high and how far you could go.

OMG---What a FUN weekend!!! Part 2

After breakfast the next morning, we drove up to Lake Hartwell to spend the day at Uncle Bill and Aunt Jill's lake house.  As usual for anywhere we are supposed to be, we were totally late.   So as soon as we arrived we all put our suits on and went directly out on the lake.

Even Granger got in on the festivities...

I think this is such a good picture of Jill...

Aunt Liz and Grandma Judy....

Cousin Jack....

Uncle Bill let the kids drive the boat when we were out of the way of anything they could possibly destroy.

It was sooo hard to get the tangles out of the girl's hair at the end of the day. 

OMG--What a FUN weekend!!! Part 1

It began with a c.r.a.z.y. Friday.  Judy arrived at 4:45, we left the house to take the girls to ballet/tap at 4:46, came home at 6:30 to Uncle's Mike and Eric having cocktails and appetizers with Tim, and then Uncle Dave and Aunt Cathy arrived for dinner about 1/2 hour later.  We got minimal sleep that night but it was so so so so much fun!!!
