Elise and I got to spend four great days at Lake Fork. Angie's parents have a house on the lake there and it is beautiful. Mom, Dad, Elise and I (Jody had to work - boo) stayed in the apartment above the garage. It is so cute. Very relaxing with a lot of good conversation.
Brooke was awesome! It was so adorable to see her already wanting to play with Elise. She would scoot over to her every time and reach out to grab her. I can't WAIT until Elise can play with her.
I didn't think I was a "put a hat on my baby" type of person, but I couldn't resist the cuteness. I call this her Lake House outfit. She didn't spend much time in the sun, but she sure did look good!
Three of the the cousins! Brooke, Samantha and Elise. Samantha is already a great babysitter. Elise loved to watch her dance and listen to her sing. The constant entertainment was very much missed when we got home.
It is really hard to tell how nice the view of the lake was from the back porch in this picture, but the lawn is so green and trees so pretty. Keith, Sam and Lilly are in the inflatable pool. The girls LOVED having their parents "swim" with them. I even got in once and played the role of "nice shark."
This used to be a ball, but apparently got a hole in it. Sam put it on her head as she started to walk away and it made us all crack up. It's funnier in person because all those little rubber things jiggle with any movement.
Elise and I can't wait to go back. Hopefully Jody gets to go next time. Oh, and I highly recommend Keith and Angie's cooking if you get the chance!
This was after:
Good to know she doesn't scare too easily, like her Daddy. It was more like - "Uhhh, Mommy, what was that?"
I had a great birthday this year. It started at Emily and Scott's wedding and ended at Olive Garden with Elise, Jody, my Mom and Glenda. They put a hair net on your head when they sing to you and we thought Elise would want to wear it, too.......Nope.
Breana's sister got married at The Vineyard on June 20Th. It was beautiful and the food was awesome! They do dinner by reservation, also. I highly recommend it.
Jody and I ended up eating at a table by ourselves in the basement. Sounds like no fun, but we made it fun and the basement looks like a wine cellar and is very romantic. This picture was by chance and I even tried to recreate it and couldn't. It suites him, no?
