Texas

We met Charlie's family in Texas for a nuclear mini reunion. It was great to see everyone. All the kids are getting so big! We had a chance to get to know Zeke and Colt a little better too. These are my personal pictures so it is the first batch. There will be more to come..

The lake was SO low this year! They hadn't had rain for 3 months. It was about 200 ft lower then the last time we were there. All of the guys were working on getting the deck level off of all the rocks!


We did catch some beautiful sunsets. The first day we were there it was pretty overcast and actually stormed a little. We saw an awesome lightening storm when we were fishing one evening. Don't have any pictures of it. I also need to mention Hannah and i were the only ones that caught fish!! (while charlie and i were there at least). I caught mine within the first few minutes of throwing the line out and it was about 7in. Of course i have no photographic evidence but I assure you its true. Hannah had hooked a big catfish ( i think) and i was trying to help her pull it up but it was so heavy it broke the line!


Of course we went on numerous boat rides and jet ski sessions. Whenever we went to the deck there would surely be a little rugrat who followed us out there. All of the kids loved hanging out on there, feeding the fish, watching everyone fish, trying to catch little fishy's in the net. They were all adorable. Thank goodness Hannah was there! She was so great and helpful with the kids, excellent Aunty.





I was so impressed with how calm, relaxed and smiley Zeke was. He had taken more then one nap on the boat and it was the cutest thing! He must have enjoyed the swaying and rocking because when we were on there he would be asleep in no time.




Psillos brothers felt it was a good idea to climb the roof of the dock and jump off. OF COURSE i missed the actual jump but the whole time they were doing it, it seemed sketchy BUT hey they survived and nothing was broken.




I was sort of disappointed in myself for not taking more pictures but my camera ran out of batteries and then I just started to depend on everyone else for them so this was all i got! I realllly slacked with charlies wakeboarding pictures but I got one good air and one mid fall so that is ok :)

We had a great time. Very short compared to last year but work duties call and charlie had to be back for work on Monday. Thanks again to the Williams for letting us stay there!
