Smith Lake Weekend


Before our summer vacation was over, we decided to make a quick weekend trip to Smith Lake. We asked the Milligans to join us and we were glad we did because we had tons of fun...as always!

We stayed at my Grandparents lake house which is actually up for sale. There is no furniture, or anything else for that matter, in the house so we really had to "rough" it just like we were camping. (However, it did have air conditioner and a shower so I guess that's not technically "camping!")

We started off our weekend by splashing into the lake as fast as we could. It was SO HOT!




When the sun started to go down, we did a little fishing. We didn't have much luck because of the heat but the kids enjoyed it...





After fishing, Mark grilled some steaks while the rest of us relaxed....



After dinner, the grown-ups battled it out in a serious game of Rummy.....Haha!


The next day, we went for what we thought would be a nice day at the recreation/beach area....




However, the water was DISGUSTING and HOT.....


Yuck! We didn't stay there long!

When we got back, we decided to cool off in the house for a while.... but somehow an indoor football game erupted!



Poor Mark!


Good gracious! Watch out kids!


Mini chest-bump!


Don't worry! They're still buddies!


Even though we didn't have a boat, it was miserably hot and we had to sleep on the floor, we had a great time! It is always trips like this that make you thankful to have a great family, great friends....and AIR CONDITIONING! =)
