Weekend in Grapeland

After a LONG work week, it was time to relax and have some fun at the family lake house in Grapeland.  It always brings back memories of Mumps/Grumps to be at the lake house, but it makes me smile.  I sure wish I could see Mumps sitting on the enclosed patio with her drink or Grumps lounged back in the blue recliner with Dolly (their dog) next to him.  We had a fun time just hanging out together, fishing, cutting a tree down, mowing the hill, watching a movie, attempting to roast marshmallows, and most of all...getting dirty!  Each time we go, we say to ourselves "why don't we go more often?"  Well, it's true, we NEED to go more often.  Being with nature and away from our "crazy fast life" has a way of rejuvenating anyone!  Caelin wasn't feeling up to par due to a left ear infection, so we spent most of the weekend taking turns cuddling with her.  Cade had a blast and kept say, "I love the lake house, it so much fun!"  Cade enjoyed yelling "timbeeeeerrrrr" when the tree fell, was SO EXCITED when he caught a fish, and would not eat the roasted marshmallows..he only wanted to eat the ones from the bag.  Here are some fun pics.  Thanks to Gamee/Grampee for getting us all to go!
