I cannot begin to tell you how much fun we had in Big Canoe with Mom, Tom, Cacoo, Fielding, the YaYas and the Petite YaYas (all 6 of them!). We had gotten pretty good about spending Memorial Day weekend together in the mountains. But then Olivia had to go and start school which didn't let out until after Memorial Day and made it harder for us to get there from Houston. So, this was our first get-together where we were ALL together in over two years. We (and by 'we' I mean Ashley and Sarah) added two petites (children of YaYas), Helen Randall and James.
I was having so much fun that I didn't really take a lot of pictures, but I will post the ones that I did manage to take while we were at the lake, pool and riding in the boat.
Olivia snapped this shot of Dawn and me.
McIver managed to get in on the volleyball game on the beach. It didn't take him long to realize he may have been in over his head. The other players were very kind to him and taught him a few of the rules, how to hold his hands, etc. It was harder to teach him not to dodge the ball, though.
Dawn got quite a workout taking the kids out in the canoe and paddle boat.
Sadie stayed at the house for James to take his morning nap, so Julia came to the pool/lake with us. She had a blast splashing in the lake and riding in the paddle boat with us.
