Mom, Dad, A, K & Nunny Nancy went downtown to see the performance of this classic movie. It was Lane's first time at a professional musical & she couldnt help wishing that she was onstage & not in the audience!! The show was wonderful and it was so nice to go out for a night. We didnt think to take a picture of all of us, and cameras arent allowed in the theater, so this photo is from the front of the program :)
These pictures are from 2 weeks ago...more to come soon of this past weekend. Family picnic pictures coming too.
We spent most of the time in the park. We took a boat ride around the lake since we dont have our own boat yet ;) We watched a wedding in the park and walked through a car cruise while listening to oldies music. The wedding was very, very sweet and a beautiful day for it. The car cruise...way too cool!! There are some pictures of the rented cottage we've been staying at too. Enjoy!!
Isabella spent the morning & afternoon with our crew. It was cloudy out, but really humid so everybody went swimming. The boys loved having a little girl to pamper! I wonder why they dont get so excited about pampering older girls too? haha. Lane went camera crazy trying to capture all the funny things they were doing. The day ended with a nap...after chasing those little guys around all day, it was well deserved!
A friend had tickets for FanFest on Friday the 7th, but had to work, so he asked us if we wanted to use them!! Dad, A, K and S all headed out for a day full day of fun. We had a blast at the batting cages, saw tball teams play on an indoor field they had set up (S loved that!), played games & browsed tons of memorablia. We also saw some of the women who were the inspiration for the movie "A League of Their Own." We got their autographs & Lane loved listening to them talk about "how it was in good ol days!" There was so much to do. We barely saw everything there was to do. In the end, we had bags full of tshirts & free stuff and a day full of wonderful memories.
A four day weekend at the lake felt like a week-long vacation!! We stayed in a rented cottage, but spent most of our time over on the other side of the lake scoping out different neighborhoods & houses to get familiar with the area. We had friends over for dinner one night & had a great time with them as always. We found the Fireman's Beach and spent two whole days being lazy there. Watching the boys dig and play in the water is so much fun! We went to the amusement park a couple times too. Once to walk to boardwalk & play games; once to see fireworks. The show was amazing. The best we've seen in a LONG time!! We came home Tuesday afternoon since it was rainy & went up the street to Nunny Lou's house to eat grilled chicken & all the other yummys you're supposed to eat on the 4th. We ended the wonderful holiday by watching all the different neighborhood's put on fireworks. We had front row seats & the perfect view of every one...our front porch!
We put a bid in on a lake house and are anxiously awaiting a counter! We've spent time at the lake with friends & have loved it. We are all so excited!!! The house does need quite a bit of work, but the area is one of the nicest around the lake, so it is a very good investment on our part. The actual lake is three houses down the street & there is a canal behind the house for a pontoon to dock. The house is a four bedroom, two bath. Tons of room for family & friends to come over and party! Take a look...
