We're Still There

Alright, I think this will officially wrap up our Smith Lake trip. My dad rented a boat for a couple of the days we were there and we had a blast.


All of the cousins on the boat, doesn't SK look thrilled...



When we asked who wanted to be the first in the innertube, of course Jacob's hand shot straight up. He really is fearless, don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing.
















This is what happens after 2 days of boat riding and tubing...














My sister and Grey, she was the best, she went with him every time and as long as Daddy didn't drive too fast, he was lovin' it.






Cousins Cooper and Emma Claire, he was so sweet with her and she just adored him. He never stops being the big brother.

















Life Jacket-check, floaty ring-check, ok now Grey is ready to get in the lake.




After SK got dressed that morning she was really hoping it was the 4th of July, love her sweet smile...





My mom and Sophie Kate...




Oh please, don't act like you didn't know they would have on matching dresses that day, my mom made certain of that.





All of the cousins...




Thanks PawPaw and MiMi for a super fun trip with the whole family. Praise God for family and fun times, good weather, good food and worn out kids. SK did great, she spent 2 full days on the boat and didn't miss a beat. She was held, fed, loved on, played with and fussed over by many people who love her. Thank you Jesus for her health this summer, she has been our go along and get along girl and an absolute sweetheart. We spent 8 days swimming, boating, tubing, eating, playing Wii, watching a little Star Wars, ummm....floating, running wild, sleeping (some) and even less bathing (for the kids of course) and SK was in on almost all of it.


This is my gift, when I look at these faces it's almost more than my heart can handle. I want to give them the bestest, most funnest summer before scheduled, routine life catches up with us again.
