Last weekend we spent Memorial Day Weekend together as a family at the lake. We had the best time! It was such a wonderful weekend full of play time and relaxation. The weather was absolutely perfect! We couldn’t have hand picked better weather. I of course took tons of photos, so this post is going to be FULL of them! (if you get any that fail to load due to the amount on the site, just right click on the red X and click “show picture”, and it will reload it for you)
So here are some snapshots of how we spent our three day holiday weekend! (I’ll tell ya now, there are none of me! (sorry mom!)
The boys played a lot on their Skim Board (that they received courtesy of their Mema and Pepa last year!) They had a blast. I’m not sure who enjoyed it more them or me! They just loved showing off for the camera 
and I loved that they were showing off for the camera 
Staying on is really hard!
Here he looks like a real surfer!
He made it all the way down!
Whoops!
After awhile of skim boarding they decided to turn it into a good ol’ slip n slide!
I love the water in this shot!
After a good run of splashing
He’d probably kill me for posting this one, but I love it! he was sliding on his knee’s
break dancing?
another one of my favorites. Love this action shot! notice his brother in the background cheering him on for nailing the move, lol!
HI there!
Whew! what a ride!
rolling?
haha great pose
silly boys
My rock star guitarist
the water is this big!
a genuine smile before he spun around and ran away from me, lol, can’t remember why, I was chasing him or somthing.
For an interesting twist, the boys went with me to my most favorite Tea Room for lunch. Isabelle wanted to go with her daddy to go get minnows (she loves her animals no matter what kind! lol)
(Pics taken with my Iphone) I know they don’t looked thrilled here, but they were both trying hard not to look like they liked being in a ladies “tea room” , lol, but we all actually had a great time, and the food was amazing as always! It was great for them to get a little culture in their lives as well, lol.
We also spent some time at the park. I love this park. it’s gorgeous, and we always have so much fun!
my youngest and oldest! Wow can they really be mine??
the boys proceeded to challenge each other by jumping off the swings. Half the time I was probably pressing the shutter button with my eyes closed! Thank God for good health insurance!
My hubby got in on the action. This is him right before he jumped off the swings with his son. I will tell you now that he did NOT nail the landing. I will also tell you that Yes, I do have fast action photos that sequence his one and only jump, and No, I can not post them because he has threatened me if I even thought about it, lol, so those aren’t going to be added here today, sorry. You’ll just have to take my word for it that they are freaking hilarious! lol! Oh and yes, he is fine
If it wasn’t already, it’s now official, I have the most gorgeous daughter on the planet!
hiya seth! are ya teeterin or totterin?
Isabelle set up this shot, and wanted me to take her pic here. lol. think she’s used to posing for me?
Hi baby! see he’s alive and well
Love this fountain. Love my kids.
And isabelle LOVES to pose! lucky me!
Funny story. The kids wanted to go up and see the goose
where the goose promptly turned and attacked! and the kids then screamed and ran away. only to repeat the process at least two more times. We then had to explain that they were too close to the momma’s nest. They had a light bulb moment, lol, it was so funny
Hiya handsome
After the park we did some water skiing! Christian is our pro ski-er, lol.
gettin the ski’s on
and he’s up!
isabelle watchin her brother
Daddy drivin the boat, his happy place
Ohhh I could just kiss this face all day! My brown eyed teddy bear.
Back to the skiing
here is his reaction to mark making him jump waves
He’s not sure how he feels about going over waves, lol
Hi gorgeous! come over here, I need to kiss your face again!
Now it’s seth’s turn to ski!
big brother’s gonna help you out. Whoa look at the size of that ski! I don’t know about this!
ski’s up! ready to go!
and he’s off!
Glub glub glub!
unfortunatly this is how seth water ski’s. LOL! he need’s much smaller ski’s, so we’re gonna get him some before his next go round! (this shot just cracks me up!)
Time for fishing!
Christian caught the first one.
He’s a bigg’un! unfortunatly he’s a drum, and drum’s taste yucky so back he went.
Hi purty girl, catchin anything? Isabelle and I have pretty matching pink fishing poles. Every girl’s gotta have a pink pole!
Seth snoozing while his pole is being set up for him, lol
After fishing we went riding around the lake. It was so gorgeous!
goin through the channel
I love seeing all the lilly pads and Cat tails
oh and these guys were on the lake too! lol
Isabelle loves to ride up front like her daddy when he was little. She was just a bucket up giggles up there.
Big brother joining in on the fun
At night we would do some more fishing. Isabelle caught the prettiest catfish I’ve ever seen!
love the color
Seth was the fishing rock star at night. He caught several HUGE fish.
one of seth’s catfish. The Drum’s he caught were even bigger!
He was pretty overwhelmed with his success and needed a moment after pulling hard to reel them in!
Ok, here is the bass that I caught, I SWEAR it was bigger in person! It was THIS BIG! lol
And of course we can’t forget swimming!
Christian fished some more. (yes, ladies and gentleman, the seventies are back, lol)
Not the best action shot but notice the rainbow on the left! too cool!
So there’s some photo’s of some things we did last weekend. We truely couldn’t have asked for a better weekend!
