Last week we had the opportunity to go Canyon Lake with Josh's family and family reunion with my Dad's side of the family in New Braunfels. We had an amazing time. Here are some pics of our adventure. Thankfully a dear friend let us borrow her portable DVD player so the car-ride was not bad at all....if you enjoy watching Lion King about six times. :)
The pic from the house we stayed at....this doesn't do it justice because the view was breathtaking.
Just arrived and bikini is on...unfortunately, the bottoms were a bit too big so she only got to dance around in for a while. Maybe by the end of the summer it will fit. (Katherine - this is the one we bought together last year for $4.99 :))
Do you think she is preparing to be a model?
Just love this one.
My in-laws have land in Canyon Lake so we were able to use the neighborhood pool. We were told we were the first ones to use it. It was gorgeous! Avery loved it. Her swimming lessons are definitely paying off.
Amelia liked the water too. It was pretty chilly so she didn't last too long.
Me and my girls.

GiGi feeding Amelia her bottle. So nice to have an extra set of hands so we could play in the pool too.
Deer everywhere. Look at the baby fawn.
Amelia so cute first thing in the morning.
Mischievous already first thing in the morning.
Isn't the sunrise gorgeous? We were up at the crack of dawn because something was wrong with the house alarm. It was a good thing because we got to see the beautiful sunrise.
Almost a smile
Day 2 - they rented a boat so we all went out. I knew the girls would have to have life jackets, but I didn't think about them having to wear them the entire time. Makes perfect sense though...you can tell I don't get on too many boats. Avery was thrilled because GiGi got her a Dora life jacket just in case. She was also happy because she packed a big bag of Cheetos.

Now, this was the most precious sight...Amelia's life jacket was quite snug around her face, but she didn't mind one bit. GiGi and Amelia just chillin in the shade.
I was shocked she didn't care, but she lasted hours sleeping in the shade with that life jacket/pillow under her head.
Stay tuned for more...hard to upload with two little ones needing my attention.
haha... I love your life jacket realization. I grew up going to my family's house on Galveston Bay... so I lived in a Little Mermaid life jacket for several years. Get them used to them! I think kids have to wear them until they are like 13 or so. Anyone who cannot swim should always have one on anyways!
ReplyDeleteAvery is soooo cute! Amelia too... but I just think Avery is a hoot!
