Lakeside fun

We had such a fantastic weekend! On Saturday we spent the morning at Six Flags Fiesta, TX. William had fun riding The Wiggles rides with Daddy, but enjoyed the train ride around the park the most. We are really enjoying our season passes, and we can't wait to check out the waterpark. Hopefully this week or next! Saturday evening Mommy went scrapbooking with some friends and Daddy and William played with another friend of ours and his son. Everyone had a great time!



Sunday morning we woke up bright and early and met our dear friend Valerie for breakfast in San Marcos. She has been working in Arkansas for the past 4 months and we have missed her terribly. It was so good to see her and enjoy a little bit of time together. After breakfast we headed to Austin for a visit with Aunt Jolie and Uncle Mike. They made a fantastic feast for lunch. We had some AWESOME grilled shrimp and fish, pasta salad, black beans, grilled corn, and key lime pie for dessert. Oh it was yummy! William devoured the grilled corn on the cob and we found out he likes grilled shrimp. After our wonderful lunch Uncle Mike and Daddy headed to the marina to get the boat ready for William's first grand adventure on the boat. Aunt Jolie, Mommy, and William met them there about an hour later. William really wasn't too sure about the whole boating on the lake thing for awhile. He is such a thinker. He really needs to get the lay of the land before making a decision on whether or not he likes it, and you could really see that with his boat experience. We found a great little cove, dropped anchor, and the adults were ready to swim. Poor William just wasn't ready and had a bit of a scare in the water so we brought him back on board. William played on the boat for awhile and Aunt Jolie found these great duck callers that Will just loved using. At one point Will looked at Uncle Mike and said "OUT!" He wanted Uncle Mike to get in the lake. Once Uncle Mike got in he said "Momma OUT!" So Momma got in the lake. Daddy asked William "Do you want to get in the lake?" and very confidentially he said "YES!" He had such a wonderful time swimming in the lake with Uncle Mike and Daddy. He even jumped off the back of the boat a couple of times. We were all so happy that he enjoyed it. He even helped Uncle Mike drive the boat back to the dock, and on the way back pointed out many things on the lake including sail boats, big boats, and houses. All in all William had just a perfect first time on the boat. We are so proud of him for giving the lake another chance. We can't wait to do it again.



Here is a slideshow of some of our favorite pictures from our boat trip.

Thanks again Aunt Jolie and Uncle Mike for a great Sunday!!!!



We hope everyone has a fantastic week!
