3 Weeks Old

Brock is 3 weeks old today.  I know what you are thinking, but no, I’m not going to be doing a blog post every Friday.  I’m just trying to do it these first few weeks since he is changing so much.  I’m so busy that I’m not taking nearly as many pictures as I took [...]

Boating

We’ve all had a great time riding on the boat while we are here!  The dogs even got to partake, which is something they rarely get to do, so that makes me very happy   And Brody had his first boat ride.  I have a feeling that Smith Mountain Lake will be a new vacation [...]

 

Smith Mountain Lake

Today is my birthday and what better way to celebrate than with good friends at Smith Mountain Lake!  We rented a house up here for the weekend.  It’s been a lot of fun so far and the kids are having a blast together.  Here are some pictures from our first day!
