Lake 2009

We usually refer to this trip as "the mountains" but they are more like really, really, big hills to me. Anyway, another year has come and gone and it was a good one. This was the first year that we left a day early, and the weather never got too hot, the kids (and adults :) got a long splendidly, and we brought badminton. I was excited about the badminton. It is a sport that represents the peak of my athletic skills. My family (mostly Haselton side) will know more what this means. SO here are some shots of the trip, I'll note a few but leave the rest for you to figure out.

He sat there for the longest time, picking rocks out of the cracks.

He would climb into the gazebo and dance.

Preparing to take on Warrior's Trail.

Completion of the Warrior's Trail.

He LOVED the water.

He needed this little scare.

The kids watching Uncle Michael try to catch a snapping turtle.

Testing the launcher for the water balloon battle. (the launchers broke)

Spectators.

It was ON.

He is saying "ball" in his unique way. It sounds more like "bowl".

J and his cousin Rustin built this for the spaceship.

They were trying to catch fish.

Busted his lip open, boo.
