Lake Weekend

We were finally able to get away to the lake last weekend. It rained off and on all weekend, but we got out anyway. We were really thankful for the sun when it did shine through the clouds.


Saturday, we drove to Mineola for lunch and indulged in an amazing burger, fries and coconut pie from East Texas Burger. What a treat! Mostly, the entire weekend was spent lounging, eating, reading, fishing, and taking walks. David slept for the first time in a big boy bed for his nap. We put him down in the big bed for the night too, but he started crying and asking us to sleep with him. We asked him if he wanted to go back in the crib and he said, "Go back in crib." He slept peacefully the rest of the night. I guess there is something comforting about the four walls of his crib. No rush here. I am perfectly content with "confined" sleeping and having a little baby boy as long as I can.

David's pet lizard for the weekend. Yes, the lizard was dead. (Even his eyes were missing!) But David didn't seem to mind. We set it up on the ledge of the back porch and it stayed there the entire weekend. David is going to be surprised one day when he realizes that lizards don't usually hang out all day in one place!

We took a walk in the rain while Asher slept at the lake house with his grammy and pops.

We met some friendly horses...

And fed them a snack.
