Mother's Day Weekend

This weekend we ended up taking a last minute trip to Seguin with Tim and Shara. Tim's parents have a house right on the lake and we all decided we needed a little get away. We drove down Friday after work and got there around 6:30pm. We had dinner and then headed over to the house. Brody was pretty wiped out so we got his room set up and put him down to bed. The rest of us stayed up playing dice games and hanging out by the lake. It's so beautiful out there. The next day we slept in a little and got up around 10am. We decided to take Brody out on the boat and see what he thought. Well the first step was putting on the life vest which he HATED. But once we got on the boat he was fine. At first he didn't really know what to do, he was holding these two sticks that he absolutely refused to let go of. It was cracking me up. Then we anchored the boat and all got in the water. Brody was such a little fish, he loved the water. He figured out how to jump off the back of the boat and thought it was the funnest thing in the world. After that we headed back to the house for some lunch and a nap for Brody. While he napped we all got in the lake and just floated around the dock. That night we made a really yummy dinner and played Catch Phrase and Smart Ass. It was such a fun weekend. It felt like a real getaway and was so relaxing. Thanks for inviting us Tim and Shara, we can't wait to go back for the 4th.

This was Friday night when we got back to the house. Brody was really tired, he just cuddled up with Tim and the couch and relaxed.

The four of us our first night on the lake.

The next morning the first thing Brody wanted to do was swing. He learned how to say weeeee while we were there.

Getting used to the boat, I love his hair.

Holding the sticks.

It only took him a little while to warm up and then he loved it.

Chip let him drive the boat, I don't know who liked it more.

Wow what a fun weekend! Brody is going to have to learn how to swim - it's great that he loves the water! So nice to have such nice friends.
