spring break at the lake


We just got back from our spring break getaway at mom and dad's lake house.


Ahh...there was some much needed relaxation and precious time spent with Darren and the boys. Since the boat and jet skiis have yet to be de-winterized, we spent lots of time on the neighborhood tennis court, playground, basketball court and cruising around on the golf cart and Moped.



Oh, and the boys favorite thing to do? Throw rocks into the water. I mostly observed their boyish fun from the deck while enjoying a good book. I did join them for awhile, but I just can't get into skipping rocks for hours at a time. Sorry, that's just not my thing.




And like we usually do while at the lake, we went into the big town of Grove, Oklahoma for lunch each day and then cooked dinner out on the grill for our evening meals.



Then after dinner, there was relaxing....lots and lots of relaxing!

Good to see pics of you too! Glad you guys had a fun week. But, helmets for that mo-ped!? Your dad's a radiologist and Darren's a police officer--don't they see enough awful stuff to be super paranoid??

Carrie, the house is in a gated community with no traffic. But yes we are helmet wearers, even when on bicycles with training wheels! I am super freaky about helmet safety as are both Darren and my dad. I knew the helmet thing would come up as I would've been thinking the same thing had I now been there. They really only rode the Moped up the driveway which is very long and then turned back around and topped out at around 5 MPH. Since I knew they were only doing that, I wasn't worried (for once). ;)

I was just giving you a hard time, since I know what a worrier you are :) I wasn't truly passing judgement!
My dad has electric scooters that he and Lois ride all over at the lake, and I'm shocked my dad (Mr. Ultra-safety) doesn't have helmets for them.
