Lake fun!

About a month ago we headed to Smith Mountain Lake for the week leading up to the 4th. We spent our days taking early morning walks to see the cows, watching the fish on the dock, relaxing in the hammock, and enjoying being together as a family. Anna still isn't sure about swimming in the lake nor is she a huge fan of the boat. We think it is because she was so sick over Memorial Day (which we did not know until after the boat ride) when she last went out on the boat. But she loves her baby pool there and loves to be out and about watching the sights and sounds of the lake, especially all the boats and waverunners. Each boat that passes is just as thrilling as the last.

Anna spent one afternoon snapping beans with Shar. Anna quickly learned the technique and became a diligent worker until all the beans were snapped. She would grin from ear to ear after she snapped a bean!
Water and land games were enjoyed by all. Mostly the men partook in the water games as the pregnant women had to be bystanders. However, we did all venture out for a game of putt-putt, another first for Anna (if you don't count the game played when she was in the Baby Bjorn). She lasted about 4 holes before she was ready to sit and watch the carp that were swimming near by.

In Pittsboro. S & T Soda Shoppe. Such a step back in time. They serve meals too....burgers, grilled cheese, etc. The people who own/run it are such precious people and their sons work there too! Let me know if you try it. They aren't open real late at night and I think they are closed on Sundays.
