A Day at Smith Lake...

Our friends, the Hudsons, invited us to join them at Smith Lake today.  Fortunately it was a bit overcast, so while it was still in the mid-90's, it was enjoyable to be outside playing in the lake and building sand castles.

Pete and Brittany going in!
(And that's Carrigan, James, Henry, Clayton and Brittany's mom in the distance.)


Pete and Clayton throwing the ball to each other.

Pete running away

He wasn't sure at first, but after a little while, Pete loved it!

James, Kenton, and Henry swimming out to the dock

The big boys

And they're off!  They even got to see a waterfall!

It was so nice to be outside... without a TV, an iPhone or iPad, or the wii.  Just friends, a picnic lunch, sand castles, a canoe ride, a playground to play on... what more could a kid ask for?  It was great.

I am a stay-at-home mom to 3 energetic, funny, sweet, and crazy boys. I married my best friend, Chris, and love our life together. The Army is sending him overseas soon so I thought this blog would be a great way for him (and the grandparents!) to keep up with our hectic life. Unfortunately the Army keeps us too far from family and most of our friends so hopefully this will help us stay connected.
