Memorial Day 2000 and 10 :)

Weekend at the lake; yucky weather and all:) Well to start off Saturday we all loaded up on the boat and headed out on the beautiful Lake Martin around 9. Grady, Riley, Kayli Grace, Marli, Sophie, and Chloe all have a blast on the lake. We rode for a little bit and stopped at a huge sand bar. We stayed for about 4 hours before we knew it. Then the rain decided to come after us. We wound up out running it until we hit Chimney Rock. We sat at the Ridge for 20 minutes or so then headed back in. Here are a few pictures from the lake day...

Then Sunday we had a wonderful time at church and eating at Arby's. Chris and Christi also added a new addition to the family and bought a puppy. It's an English Spangle Spaniel. Riley decided she was going to name him Nemo Eric...Lol Here is a quick picture of him

After eating we all went home, changed, and headed to Nina's to let the kiddos swim in the pool.

After all the swimmming Sunday afternoon we went home and crashed! Monday was the first morning we had all slept late in awhile! It was so nice to wake up and not have to rush to get ready. So we lounged around the house most the morning and went to Nina and Paw Paw's again for lunch. We had steak, potatoes, etc. Not to mention the homemade ice cream:) After lunch the kids proceeded to make their way to the pool again and then Angi broke out the slip n slide as I got the watermelon. They played on that for awhile! Last but not least they decided to head to the pond and hunt for frogs but before they left they all ate smores. Here are a few more pictures to wrap up the weekend and I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day!!! Let's not all forget what it's truly about. I loved explaining to Marli what Memorial Day was set aside for. Thank you soliders for everything you do! God bless America!
