TRIP TO THE LAKE

Pictures of the lake house.

When we made plans for our girl's get away at the lake over a month ago, we called to reserve a house. We rented one on Grand Lake which would be convenient for all of us to meet at. We were told the house had never been rented out before, but it was located on the lake. Since there were no pictures of it, we had no idea what to expect. The house was awesome. We could see the lake from three sides of the house. There were huge windows in the living room, dinning room and kitchen, so we had a view of the lake at all times. There was a huge deck on the back that wrapped around the house and across from the deck was a yacht club. We could sit out on the deck and watch the yachts go up and down the lake. There was just one disadvantage and that was the little girls running in and out all the time. There were gates on both sides of the deck leading down to the lake and they knew how to open them. Also, from the front door, the lake was only about 20 feet away. But, we all had a great time. I hope the grandkids will remember it and look forward to next years girl's get away.

Carter really liked this boat.

THIS AND THAT

My crepe myrtles are blooming this year. I don't know why, but they did not bloom last year. It is very hot here. On another note we are having a girl's weekend at the lake this weekend. We are also allowing Carter to come even though he is not a girl. I know it won't be too long until he will not want to hang out with the girls. We have rented a house on the lake. I am not sure any of the grandkids will even get in the lake. Abby and Karlie have never even been to a lake. My crepe myrtles.

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!!!

KC CREW

The crew from Kansas City arrived on Thursday night. They stayed busy while they were here. Tracy, Melvin, Michelle, Tad, Carter and Karlie went to the zoo one day and that afternoon Michelle and family went to a good friends house swimming. They went to Tracys' works' family outing one day. I think they enjoyed it, but it sure was hot.
