Fun At The Beach ... Last Month

Forewarning: Major picture overload

J and I were in charge of J's family reunion. We decided to go to a mountain lake and play. It was such a blast! The best part about this lake is that it has a "slow decline" in elevation. Does that make sense? It is really shallow for a long time and doesn't get deep until several hundred yards out. The kids had so much fun because they could go out far and not worry about it being deep. We set up some shade, some camp chairs, and just hung out and played. And, of course, we had food! Here are some pictures of the kiddos.

E approaching the water for the first time with Aunt Maria. 


A view of the beach.


P having a blast playing with the sand.


Splashing around. They had so much fun!


E wasn't so sure about the sand on his feet at first. He got over it pretty quick.


E playing with the sticks and stuff that washed to the shore.


Some of the fam damily out having some fun.


Great action shot of E throwing sand!


E and his cousin, A, having lunch. His uncle put that sticker on his forehead and he didn't even notice!


Me and E playing in the water and sand.


P loved this little water gun toy. It seriously kept him entertained for hours!


My baby boy is so stinkin' handsome and grown up!! :'-)


Aunt Laura with some of the cousins


Just an idea of how far out we could go in the water. It was only up to their hips!!! Pretty cool if you ask me.


CHEESE!  I can never get this boy to look at the camera long enough for it to snap. He always moves before it actually takes the shot. 


Make a castle .... well, maybe a mud pile!

Happy List

Photobucket


I'M HAPPY that I have the weekend off! Woot!

I'M HAPPY that I got to go to a family reunion for my maternal grandmother's family. I only found out about it yesterday. Luckily, I have the day off and was able to attend!

I'M HAPPY to have watched my Uncle Gary try to swing a bat and hit a softball! It took him about 10 pitches but he finally connected! I've never screamed so loud! :-)  It was hilarious!

I'M HAPPY that we, as a family, went with another family rock climbing yesterday! It was so stinkin' fun!

I'M HAPPY that I was able to climb the 30 foot wall twice!

I'M HAPPY that we have good friends who invite us to do fun things!

I'M HAPPY (kind of) that I'm sitting here watching Veggie Tales with J and P while I blog. E is napping.

I'M HAPPY that E naps! When he doesn't, he is a G.R.U.M.P.!

I'M HAPPY to have such a wonderful family!

I hope you all are HAPPY too! Click on the pic above and join in the happiness!
