Memorial Day

At the last minute, we decided to take a trip to the lake in Alabama for Memorial Day. When we woke up on Monday morning, we headed that way. We told these two that it was a surprise and they had no idea where we were going.

When we turned into their neighborhood, I heard Curly-Q say to herself, "Is this Grandmother and Grandaddy's?" and Little Man said, "I see a lake!" They were both really excited when they realized where we were!

We took a boat ride to a restaurant for lunch and jumped in the water to cool off.

After being out on the boat, they finally got to do some fishing. They both really love to fish, but the two of them on the dock made us a nervous wreck. Especially the little guy who is here, there, and everywhere. And that is why they have life vests on while fishing!

Curly caught a brim!

And her brother was VERY interested in her fish! He kept asking if he could touch it.

Then he caught a fish of his own! He was so proud!



And once they gave up on fishing, they played with the worms. Curly loved walking along the seawall and Little Man sat on the seawall and threw pebbles into the lake with Grandaddy. I think we've found something fun we can do when my kids are up with the sun on those hot July mornings coming up!
