Fathers Day Weekend

What an unexpected surprise when Jill called last Thursday and told us they were coming down for the weekend to get out of the smoke!!  Little did they know that we also had a small fire over at Lake George but at least there wasn't any smoke at our place (my next blog will be on the current fire)

We had a fun weekend!!  Didn't do anything special but just hang out and play with the kids!!  Aleah decided she LOVED the barn and all the little animals we have to go with it - and insisted on taking it out to the front deck which in the morning has full sun!!  She looks so cute sitting there playing but of course her eyes are shut as the sun is so bright!!



We decided to let the kids get in the hot tub Saturday morning before the sun got too intense - Jill and I had gotten in the night before and it was a beautiful night - lots of stars, cool breeze - it was amazing!!  Here is Aleah fishing as she waits for her mom!


Parker enjoyed the water to a point - he stayed in a while but decided he would rather just watch!


I love this picture - Aleah is all curled up and Parker is just as relaxed as can be, thinking man it's hot here in the mountains!!!  Notice he's now doing the "tongue" thing!!

The kids loved the sand box!!   Of course they decided dumping the sand out on the ground was even more fun so I told them they could put sand in the lid and that worked out just fine!

Aleah had fun riding the trike around on the deck!!  She's getting it down pretty well now, just needs to work on her steering!
Aleah decided it was way too light in the room she was sleeping in as she's used to a pretty dark room, so she was up at 6:00am both mornings!!  I know Jill was ready for a nap on Saturday afternoon but instead of napping, we took the time to make some miami vices and play some cribbage while the kids were sleeping!! 

Here's Parker wearing Robby's hat and looking cute as ever!!!  Thanks for spending your weekend with us!!
