Weekend with the Cousins

Relaxing in "The Man Cave" at Keith & Amy's house

We have recently returned from visiting Alabama cousins Keith, Amy, Wyatt, and Zach, and what a time we had!  We first spent a couple of days at their house, relaxing, playing, fellowshipping.  Then they treated us to a trip to a lake about 45 minutes away.  It was gorgeous!

We stayed overnight in a beautiful townhouse that stepped right out onto a dock where Amy's parents have a speed boat and a pontoon boat.  Let me tell ya, it's all in who ya know-- and we are so blessed to know Sally and Michael!

The kids had their first opportunity to try knee-boarding and tubing.  When I say a good time was had by all, that doesn't even begin to cover it!  Andrew took to knee-boarding like a fish to water.  The girls had a harder time of it, but not for lack of trying!  They decided that tubing was their sport, at least for now.

Dwayne dared to take Reagan out tubing, too.  Reagan thought it was great fun-- until the boat started to move!  So Reagan came up in the boat with me and Dwayne took the chance to go solo.

As for me, I seem to have turned into quite a chicken.  Just riding in the boat was adventure enough for me!  (Who's with me?)

 Thank you, Keith and Amy!  We had so much fun and made such great memories!  You guys are the best; thinking of you makes us smile!
