Day at the Lake

We spent our Saturday at the lake with Gigi and Bubba. We were worried the weather wouldn't cooperate, but the skies finally cleared and we were able to spend several hours swimming and riding on the boat.

Reagan was brave and jumped off the boat too, but I was in the water and didn't capture it on video ~ maybe next time!

Reagan has said some of the funniest things lately. Her latest comments today were:

~after jumping into the water: "I got water in the talker on my face (her mouth) and it feels funny"

~ after a big boat went by and seeing the waves coming toward us: "Oh my holy, holy, holy cow!"

On The Road

We left for Tennessee this morning to visit Gigi & Bubba (and a few more friends, but we'll have more on that tomorrow).

In the cartoon zone 10 minutes into the trip

Cooper got some new headphones for the trip
I sat in between Reagan and Cooper on the ride over.

they're both so glued to the DVD that they didn't even notice me taking pictures!

This is why I had to sit in the back seat (again, more on that tomorrow!)

Once at Gigi & Bubba's house, the playing started
