We headed up to the Mimi & Papa's lake house this weekend to enjoy some fun in the sun, relaxing on the boat, a little fishing perhaps. However, Mother Nature had other plasns. There has been a major drought in the area this year. Janet said it hasn't rained since November. Just our luck, they got all caught up in just one weekend.
Oh well, the good news is that Jillian and Nicholas really didn't seem to mind. We went up on Friday morning and the weather was a bit stuffy, but nice. (Why did we complain?)
Here is Daddy and Jillian scoping out the deers....
And Berkley
A very adventurous girl
I have to give Jillian props for this, she shared with Nicholas pretty good. I couldn't believe she let this prized possession go for a minute. I probably helps that she idolizes her "Buddy" Nicholas.
Then Friday evening Janet got to show us her true calling. Your local Meteorologist has nothing on my Mother-in-Law. You really need to see her in action. There was tornados in several areas around and she gave us a very detailed play by play. I lost count of how many times she walked between the TV and the little radio. At one point an old school GPS (a.k.a. a map) came out. I felt very safe on the patio with my Crown and diet watching the whole thing role through. (you'd be proud, Mom.) (Mimi, I know what you are thinking, and you shouldn't say things like that about your daughter in law.)
JB slept through the whole thing. Nicholas had to get a little help from Papa. Or did Papa get a little help from Nicholas. One can never be too sure.
Between the rain, Daddy and Uncle Greg did get a fire going. It made the light drizzles bearable.
More deer hunting.
And to finish off our Saturday, Uncle Greg hooked the kiddos up with some big old glow sticks. Or as JB calls hers, "glow."
