His, Hers and Both of them!

Finally, pictures from our Memorial Day weekend lake trip. Aiden was a trooper and ventured out on the boat despite the oh so uncomfortable life jacket. Although, smiles are hard to come by as the jacket squishes his face, he didn't seem to mind the ride one bit.
Highlights for Aiden:
Time in the grass and dock, while watching Anna swim and boats pass by.
Watching grandaddy power wash.
Eating lots of puffs and cheerios.
Sleeping soundly in the dark, dark walk-in closet.
Lowlights: Tumbling down a flight of stairs. Followed by a fall off the bed the next day. Years were surely taken off my life after those two spills but he seemed just fine!

Wow, what a difference a year makes. This little girl who was apprehensive about the boat and massive lake water last year couldn't get enough of both of them on this trip.
Highlights for Anna:
A boat ride to the Mexican restaurant for lunch one day.
Swimming, swimming, and more swimming.
Convincing mommy the water was plenty warm to swim.
Jumping off the lake hand-in-hand with mommy and daddy.
Climbing the ladder to the dock.
Riding in the boat as mommy and daddy skied.
Playing with her sand and water table.
Going "over the lake" as she and grandaddy swung.
Picnics outside.
Sleeping in a BIG girl bed, a bunk bed nonetheless.
And of course blowing bubbles. No trip to the lake is complete without bubbles!
Lowlights: Having to leave it all behind.

And in the words of Anna...here are a few pictures of "both of them" playing at the end of the day in the yard. They surely make me smile!

Elliot was wondering when you were going to blog about the cousin get together. I told him I would let his Aunt know he was wondering about this :)
