For the past 6 years we have packed the truck and headed to the Outer Banks for our family vacation. This year, however, we had a very special person "expected" around that time and had to decline the invitation to the beach. We were blessed that Bryan's boss allowed us the opportunity to escape for a bit as a new family of 4 to his lake home on Lake Chautauqua. It is a beautiful area, and we had tons of fun!!
Bryanna was able to enjoy evening fishing with Daddy. Bryan would cast it way out in the lake and she wouldn't catch anything. She casted it once close to the dock, and caught a little fish....and couldn't have been prouder!
Bryanna's favorite activity of the week was tubing.
But the paddle boat was also tons of fun!!
Bryanna stopping a bit from the fun to say hi to her baby sister and to steal a couple kisses!
Bryanna and Daddy on the jet ski. She LOVED to go fast on the jet ski, but hated to stop. Bryan stopped once to let a few boats pass, and the wakes sent both he and Bryanna into the water. So...Bryanna now associates stopping with getting dumped into the water. As with everything else that moves, the faster the better for her!
We were so extremely blessed to have Aunt Kathie and Uncle Terry join us for a few days of our vacation. Bryanna absolutely LOVED the time spent together!! Above we were "tubing" behind the paddle boat (poor Uncle Terry!), while Bryanna was the co-captian. And also Aunt Kathie, Bryanna, and I went for the long paddle boat ride to the bridge and back one evening.
A beautiful sunset over the lake --- a beautiful evening!!
And a final picture of the girls with Aunt Kathie and Uncle Terry. We created wonderful memories with two very special people!
