Memorial Day Weekend at the Lake

We spent Memorial Day weekend at my parent's lake house on Lake Graham with Mom, Dad & John. Kenley was fortunate enough not to have to work on Friday, Saturday or Monday, so we had a long four day weekend. It was great and the kids loved having Daddy to play with non stop!

Kenley, John, Cooper & Luke rode the wave runners some that weekend. They all had a blast!!!
All the boys -big & small- had demolition on the old swimming pool. Mom & Dad decided to get a new pool and a better one. The previous owners had not put the pool up right and it just was not good. So this weekend, the old one came down. Luke found the ultimate sandbox.....under where the old pool sat was the perfect, LARGE sand area for the boys.
The guys did lots of fishing over the weekend too. Kenley lost so many lures, we stopped counting. Couldn't help but give him a hard time over it!!! I captured a picture of him caring Cooper's kiddie fishing pole, because Cooper decided he needed a big boy fishing pole. Cooper & Pappy sat on the dock just fishing a way in the fishing hole in the middle of the dock. John & Kenley soon joined them. I found out later that Cooper backed up and fell right in the lake through the fishing hole in the dock. Didn't hurt him, just scared him! Luckily he knows that in order to be on the dock - he has to wear his lifejacket! Kenley quickly lifted him up and out of the water and calmed him down.
This was Marlee's first stay away from the house. She seemed to love the lake....just can't tell by the picture of her by herself. She was hungry and Mommy insisted on a picture.
All in all, we had a great weekend spending time together! We love being at the lake....if we could we would live down there all year round.
