Lake - Cation!!!!

A vacation at the lake is called a "Lake-cation." Coming up with that word was the most our brains did this past week during our summer vacation. Every year we travel all over Alabama and Tennessee seeing our family at all of their wonderful "vacation" homes, but this year we planted in one spot and didn't move! Sam's parents Lakehouse!!! Other than the fact that Colby broke his arm the day before we left... it was ALL GOOD!!! Let the pictures tell the story!!!

Oh, my Boys!!!

Max got his second tooth~ and had a blast at the lake!

Pop had a great time with Sam and the boys. He taught Jackson to knee board, went on many fishing trips with Sam, and took care of "broken arm" Colby by taking him for a jet ski ride anytime he wanted.

Colby ate popsicles the ENTIRE week. Poor little guy couldn't get in the water, so he had to stay cool somehow, right? How could I deny him! He said he ate 127 and none of us doubted him.
Oh, Lali love!!! She loves her grand-boys!

Fun playing Uno!

Bo "tummy"boarded after Jackson learned to knee board!
I got to enjoy MANY sweet moments with my guys!
The boys got some sweet time with Daddy, too!
There's our CHAMP!! Jackson was sooo excited that he learned to knee board. He ran to call Austen, Hayden, and Jack to let them know and then asked repeatedly if he could go again! I just beamed at his confidence!!!

Bo adores his cousins, Ben and Isaac!

Nanny Bea came to spend a day with us. She loves rocking chair time on the porch with the babies!
Who says a 9 month old can't can't have a blast on the water!!!

He even got to go for a little jet ski ride with daddy... big boy!!
Our most adventurous little guy had to have a more relaxed vacation this summer. Falling from a slide and completely breaking your two forearm bones and having to have a bone placement procedure with orthopedic surgeons 20 hours before leaving for vacation isn't a great wait to kick off your vacation. But Colby made the most of it... lot's of "one arm" fishing, boat rides, jet ski rides, and popsicles!!

Check out that bagged arm under the life jacket.
Check out that "one arm" fishing maneuver!
And Sam got to fish, ALOT!!!

Now that was a "lake-cation"!!!!
