Lake House

We headed out of town as soon as I could leave work on Friday, July 5th (Moppy's birthday!) for the Grenada Lake House.  Moppy and Poppy, Gay and Bobby, and Grace and Eleanor were there when we arrived... as were Mimi's props for the water fun to be had...


Yes, a pool and slip n' slide!! 


And....... 250 water balloons.  Oh my. 


About 30 seconds of hellos and hugs were in the books before these kiddos marched out to the grass with the water hose.  This little guy manned the hose to fill up the pool.


Avery didn't care about the hose - she couldn't get her bathing suit on fast enough.  Here she goes!


Eleanor and GG had to leave later that night (thus no bathing suit available) - but she wasn't far behind Avery...



... even Uncle Bobby joined in on the fun... 



Happy Birthday dear Moppy!! Happy Birthday to you!


After watching the amazing sunset on the deck, we all crashed (except for Avery. She was the last one asleep and the first one awake. Figures.) then enjoyed a lazy morning with coffee on the porch.  There's nothing better than quiet time with Moppy and Poppy! 


Here is Moppy reading to Avery - while Avery tells Mop how to do it... this is hilarious.  These two were cut from the same cloth...


Still donning our PJs, we couldn't pass up a ride on the boat!


Somebody's silly.


Avery was loving the ride and got a little excited... she can't help herself but move/dance/jump/squeal when she is excited or having fun... (notice my firm grip on her arm)

I finally had to say, "Avery, you must sit your bottom down on the seat or the boat will stop to let you off." And this is what I got.  For two seconds. 



 Little buddy loved the ride but didn't want to get too far from my side (which is perfectly fine with me!) ...

We made a move from the aft to the bow for a little more adventure...  and somebody was still talking...


Next time, we'll change from our PJs ;-)

And what is the Fourth of July weekend without......
