Weekend at the Lake

IMG_5162
Olivia LOVED the camper! She kept calling it her house. She told Jackson and Joe that they could sleep in her house. She named everything by saying "my" before it, like "my cicowave" (microwave). I really think she thought of it as a big playhouse!

Jackson is so funny! Unfortunately, I have a sun allergy and have to wear that big ole hat!

At first, Olivia wouldn't come up on deck. She did NOT like putting the life jacket on.

Making herself at home!

I finally got her to come up but this is what she did for a long time! She finally got used to it and loved it from then on! We have since found a much more comfortable life jacket for her. Hopefully she will have even more fun next time!

This is what we normally do when we go out. We pull up on an island somewhere and let the kids swim and play for a few hours. This is our favorite spot. A few years ago the boys named it Pirates Cove. Olivia really thought she was going on a treasure hunt!

Digging is the BEST!

Entertainment for hours!

Heading back to the club. This year we are really teaching the boys how to do a lot of things on the boat to help out. They are both doing a great job! Next year they will do Jr. Sail Camp and learn to sail.

Joe is loving being the Captain!

What great pics you captured! And what a wonderful way to spend time with your sweet children. I am so happy O loved everything. I see all those mosquito bites on her- poor baby. It was so great to see you all out on the lake! Can't wait to go to Pirate's Cove with you!!!
