We got home yesterday from spending some time at the lake in Alabama. We all got to spend the holiday weekend with Diane, Margaret, Peepaw Butch, Cathy, Meridith, and Mikiel. The girls had a wonderful time and are absolutely exhausted. We are spending today recuperating and catching up on some sleep.
Morgan hardly sat down the entire time we were gone. Some of her activities included fishing with uncle Mikiel, riding "Big Bertha," watching mommy ski, playing many games with Cathy, making biscuits with Meeno, helping make homemade ice cream, playing with clay, having long talks with aunt Diane, watching fireworks and sparklers, helping aunt Margaret and her brother grill out, and many many others.
Audrey ran around naked most of the trip. It started before we even left when she absolutely did NOT want to wear a shirt. It was nice to spend so much time outside so she could be bum free for awhile. She really doesn't like her diaper too much and so it was a real treat.
We set up the pool and Audrey was in it every chance she got. She seems to live for the water. She stayed off the boat until the last day. She seemed content to stay at the house with Diane or Daddy while everyone else went skiing and boating until Sunday. When everyone left to go down to the boat, we could hear her screaming at the door. I went back to get her and put her life jacket on. She didn't even touch it/pull at it once. She was ready to be on the water! She sat contentedly with Diane the entire time. Morgan rode "Big Bertha" with me and I skied. Morgan and I also swam for a bit while everyone relaxed on the boat.
The girls were so exhausted by the time we got everything together to leave. They had a good time pushing their babies up and down the driveway in strollers while Mark and I packed the car. Morgan was on the verge of melting down though and we hurried as fast as we could. We weren't very far down the road when both of our girls were fast asleep.
