Lake Life


We spent a wonderful weekend with the Wolfe clan for Memorial Day. We spent the whole time at Julie's parents lake house, and we couldn't have had more fun. The weather was great, we loved catching up with our best pals and introducing them to Charlie, and Alec had the time of his life with Logan and the dozen or so other kids that were in and out of the house over the course of the weekend. We were talking on the way home about how we aren't sure if we have ever seen Alec happier; he's at a wonderful age as far as playing with other kids goes, so mix that with a house on the beach that has every fun outdoor toy you can think of, and you get a little piece of 3 year old heaven. We also had to chuckle at one point b/c Julie and I's mini vans were parked out front next to each other - funny how much our lives have changed in the last 8 years, but 5 kids later and we are still having just as much, if not more, fun together.

Alec, Logan, Zoe and Charlie

Charlie LOVED Aunt Julie, and promptly fell asleep every time she held him

He is so close to rolling over

Checking out the lake

Hunting for sea glass with Malia, one of the Wolfe kids' cousins


Malia played with Logan and Alec all weekend, she was awesome!

The jet skis! They weren't out yet for the season, so the kids spent almost an entire day cleaning them up and getting them ready with Jason and Matt. As you can see, this project was a hit for everyone.

Zach and Alec


3 year old trouble

Charlie's first boat ride - he slept the entire time

Alec told us that riding the boat was his favorite part of the weekend - he loved "the big waves and bumps"

Being adorable, he just chilled the whole weekend. He has turned out to be such a happy and easy going baby


The kids played several games together, all by themselves, we didn't help with a thing. It was pretty cute.

These two will be giving us trouble for the next 18 years or so

A family shot


Headed to Clam Diggers for some mashed potato pizza (possibly the best, and highest caloric valued, food ever made)

Alec even got to do some driving yesterday before we left. Hope everyone had as great a weekend as we did - certainly got us excited for summer!

What a great weekend! And when did you get a minivan? You are such a mom, ha! Charlie just keeps getting cuter and cuter. Happy beginning of summer :-)
