Our Weekend at the Lake - Part I

Back in April we spent a family weekend at the lake with my brother, sister and mom (and families of course). We rented a lake house and spent the weekend together remembering Dad. It was a great time of hanging out and leaving technology and the city life behind for a few days. The kids had a great time playing with each other and I enjoyed being with those that I love the most. There are a ton of photos so I am dividing it up over several posts.

The house had a great porch and back yard that the kids could play on/in safely away from the water. We brought bikes and they had a great time.

Leave it to Benji to find the box with sharp hooks in it

Some of my most favorite boys on the planet

I am not going to lie, Benji made me nervous on the dock -- BUT HE LOVED IT!

Love this picture of my family of 4

This was taken on the top deck, again this mommy was super nervous

Look how Benji's hand is on Daddy's leg -- LOVE!

Waiting for a bite!

The first catch!

Day out with Thomas 2014

If you know anything about the Cloud boys, then you know that they love Thomas the Train. Back in March Thomas happened to be in Grapevine so we took the boys for a day of fun. We did this once when Luke was 2 so it seemed appropriate to do it again, but with Benji in tow. We had a great time riding the train and participating in the fun activities. We look forward to doing this again in the future with the rest of our growing family.
