Family Vacation

This year, Mike & I took a few days off & headed up to the lake to spend some time with Mom & Ron, and Laurie & Liam. We had a blast! We went out to Alcatraz (a sandbar in the middle of the lake), and anchored the boat & the big floatie pool! The boys had a blast climbing up the ladder and running over to the gate and jumping in! Well, Liam did...Andrew needed a little help, but loved every minute of it! Liam is quite the little fish jumping in and swimming against the current all by himself to get around to the ladder. Very impressive! We got to have one adults night out, where we went to dinner, and then for drinks. We crashed a very classy wedding at the Dirty Turtle, and Mike & Laurie danced and danced. I did a little, but mostly sat with mom watching them have fun! Saturday Mike had to leave and go to work, and Laurie and I took the boys horse back riding. The boys had a blast petting their horses & holding the reins. Andrew still talks about his horse, Smokey, and Liam's horse, Phillip, and how Smokey liked to eat leaves! Every chance he got, our horse was heading into the woods to eat! A little scary for me, but Andrew thought it was a riot!
