Weekend of Fun!

I am little behind, and Barbara reminded me that I haven't posted in a while, so here is some catch up!

Last weekend we spent out first weekend on the boat. It was an experience. Walter & I, 2 kids and the dog. It actually went better than expected.

We got a late start on Friday b/c Ann Elizabeth finished up soccer camp at the YMCA. Being that it was dark when we got to the lake and Walter was doing everything on the boat for the first time, he did a fabulous job! The children were super excited and didn't go to sleep until 10:30, and of course were up at 5:30. Oh the joys of a boat!

They both really enjoyed the water on Saturday. Ann Elizabeth is fearless and jumped right in off the back of the boat. She swam around like a little fish. Walter eventually got in the water and enjoyed it too. Hopefully he will get use to it and enjoy it as much as big sister.

Molly actually did better than I thought she would. She was probably the least amount of trouble. She slept right in the floor at our feet and was so calm the whole time that we were on the water. She didn't get in, but I think that she enjoyed the ride too!

On Sunday, our small group at church had a family get together. We met at The Welbys house for lots of outdoor fun. The kids were able to jump in the bounce houses, slide down the water slides and swim in the pool. The adults tried to come up with a name for our group that the church would approve of. Well here are some suggestions from the men of the group:

"Cheaper to Keep her", "Why God Why?", and "It's a Group Thing". Seriously, are you kidding me. Needless to say, Walter, Darren and Chad thought that those names were very appropriate.

Here are the 2 that made it to voting: "Marriage for Life" & "Growing God's Marriage".

We really enjoy our group and all the humor that goes along with. Walter and I fit right in and the children get along with everyone! Thank you Lord for placing us in this group!!

We are headed back to the lake this weekend-pending that Mommy feels better, so I am sure that I will have more stories next week!
