Hello Blog people! I'm sorry I've been so MIA, but last weekend at the lake didn't stop at the weekend! Colt and I didn't feel like coming home...so we didn't! We are still here and enjoying our home away from home.
Joe(Poppy/Blake's dad) caught a HUGE fish last weekend! Tammy and I were taking our daily 40 minute walk with Colt in his stroller when I got a phone call from Blake saying, "Dad caught the mother bear fish, get the camera and come to the boat house." We anxiously arrived at the boat house to see Joe with his EIGHTEEN pound striper!!!!! They had been fishing for a while and Joe was telling Blake that he wanted to come in for coffee and breakfast. It wasn't 15 seconds later that he got a bite from a fish that would be big enough to mount on his wall in a few months! Good job Poppy!

Here is Colt napping with his "softie" in the stroller while we drool over Poppy's fish!
This weekend my Mom and Dad joined us for the weekend. Aren't they cute?!!! 
Like I said before, my goal of this summer is to become a super good skiier. Don't get me wrong, I get up every time! BUT...I want to be able to go outside the wake, come back in, go out of the other side and come back in. Sounds simple? yes I know...Blake makes it seem soooooo easy! Let me show you what it looks like when I'm up....

AND when I fail to cross back over the wake....DANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You'd think since we practically live here I'd be a pro....NOT SO MUCH! You can only take a beating so much before you have to wait a few days to do it again!
My Dad's brother, Paul, and my 2 cousins came up to fish with Blake. They had so much fun and I just love this picture because Brian was scared to touch the fish and Blake pushed him in between all of them!!
Here is my favorite picture of the week!!! Here is my 9 year old cousin Brian tubing... and he still held on after this!!!! 
Since Colt and I decided we didn't want to come home at the end of the weekend...We had no choice, but to go wash our clothes at the WASHATERIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This was a FIRST for me. It was not as bad of an experience as I had anticipated and I'm actually wearing the clothes washed as we speak! Here is a picture of Mine & Colt's first trip to the laundromat...HAHAHAHA. let's just say we might not be back :)
My mom came back up this past Tuesday....I'm loving that she's here. She is a great shopping partner, baby sitter, porch sitter, reader, and friend!

If you are wondering how Blake could survive without Colt and I...Well, he can't. He has been commuting from here to work everyday. Its AWESOME! Its only about 20 minutes further than usual and its worth every minute!!!!! We wonder why we don't move here...I swear we might! Seriously...This is why we almost live here!!!!!!!!!!! 
So Next week starts my BIRTHDAY WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!! Every day next week I'm doing something fun and special leading up to my actual birth DAY...as well as Colt having swimming lessons everyday next week!!!!!!!!!!!!! So fun... expect maybe more than one post a day next week!

haha i love the laundromat picture. i had to go ONCE in abilene bc the one at the house was broke. i'm sure your experience was a little better than mine.
colt is precious, scarlett and carson are always looking for new friends! come play, come play!
The laundromat picture IS PRICELESS. Your Peg carseat probably cost more than one of those washing machines, I love it.
The lake photo at the end is so peaceful. Is there a guest house we can move into?
