Weekend wrap-up

This past weekend we headed to my parents lake house. We knew it was going to be hot and humid and we couldn't think of a better place to be.

Our weekend started with B moving this vehicle from the backyard to the other side of the street.

My parents are having work done on their beach and the guy moving the rocks forgot to move his tractor. My mom being the ever present optimist she asked B, can you move it? He jumped on that one like white one rice... Sure! He then got the side eye from me. He's never moved heavy machinery. He however did a great job, there were only a few apple tree branches that were casualities. All standing structures stayed in tact, and B had a very happy mother-in-law.

The next day it was hot, hot, hot! So we started the day with a boat ride. Drew had his very first boat ride!

He didn't even mind the life jacket that looks like it could swallow him and he slept the whole boat ride.

We then played in the blow-up pool with the kiddos. Yes I am referring to Drew and Ruby. They both loved it

We then tried a floaty. This did not go over so well, as documented.




Image


The little man was tuckered out after swimming so he needed a rest, a bottle and some cuddles from daddy.



Image



After a nap we hung out under a great shade tree and we had a new milestone come about for Drew.

He can now roll back to belly all by himself. At first he was a bit tentative, but now he's getting the hang on being on his tummy more and more.

I hope you all had a wonderful and relaxing weekend! Here's to a happy and healthy week ahead!

Weekend wrap-up!

This past weekend we had an absolute blast!!! B and I are now both exhausted and paying for it this Monday!! We started out the weekend by celebrating my mom & stepdad's 20th wedding anniversary with a lunch on Friday. What they didn't know was that we flew in my little sister to celebrate the weekend with us!! My mom's face was priceless!!! We then celebrated that evening with pizza and cake at my sister and another surprise, we had also flown in my little brother from New Orleans!! We figured out he would be here for a total of 32 hours!!

Sunday we ended the weekend by going to the Iowa Corn Indy 250...no we are not race fans, but I have to say it was a blast! We got up super early Sunday morning and headed over to the Iowa Speedway to experience it all. Thankfully we were either wearing ear plugs or head phones listening to the drivers and crews talk. Otherwise I would have had serious hearing damage!!

Fun at the lake

This past weekend B, Ruby and I headed to the lake for some much needed relaxation!! Saturday evening we cooked dinner, started a fire and enjoyed the beautiful weather. Sunday morning my sis, brother in law, and their 3 kiddos came over and hung out for the day. We had a blast, the weather was beautiful and my skin tone is now a bit red instead of pasty!
