Either Really Brave or Really Stupid

Danny is gone to a conference this weekend, and I really needed to just get out of the house with the kids.  It was raining Friday morning so we only went to the McDonald’s Play Place as a family.  I had a choice to make:  stay home and do what we always do or go out.  Since we hadn’t been to the Lake yet this year (it is literally a mile from our driveway), I decided to be really brave (or really stupid) and take the four kids after dinner.  I didn’t tell them where we were going until after they had eaten, but then at turbo speeds we got ready and went!

WE HAD A BLAST!!  Too bad Danny wasn’t there….he would have loved it.  There were only a few other families there, the kids were great, the weather was warm, the water was cool and it was SO RELAXING!! 

Caleb was either in his car seat in the shade or in my arms in the shade.

Josiah was cautious at first but really got the hang of it by the end… we was even running into the water with the girls!

Both girls loved swimming, getting their heads under the water, playing tag, running into the water, diving into the water , floating on their backs and going all the way out to the rope.  Their giggles could be heard all over the beach!  :)

Proof that I was there with Caleb!

The kids being kids

CHEESE!

Siah asked for a chance to hold  Caleb and wanted his picture taken… ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE!!!
