This past Saturday we celebrated my mom’s 92nd birthday at the lake. I think I’m just going to share pics without a lot of “talking” (yeah right - we all know that ain’t gonna happen!)
My sister and I decided to keep it easy so we just had hot dogs and hamburgers with all the fixins’ ….simple and good. The highlight was watching my mama enjoy being with her family….boat riding and seeing the kids and grandkids having a blast.
Here we go….
Side deck where we cook and eat…son was the designated chef as my sister’s husband was under the weather and stayed inside all day and my husband was working a ball tournament
My “baby” boy (who will be 38 next month)!!!
Here’s our bride-to-be (she is marrying my sister’s son next July). We’d love to hate her because she is so pretty and so TAN but she is just too sweet…we love her to death! BTW, I have created a Pinterest board labeled “Lake Wedding” if you’d like to see some of our ideas for their wedding next summer.
Her ring
Mama at the ‘kids table’….so cute! Surrounded by some of her great grandchildren and enjoying every minute
Granddaughter Taylor has a huge girl crush on Stephanie
And here she is on the boat surrounded by her “fan club”…both of my granddaughters
Jackson showing off his dance moves!
We had a dance-o-rama going on! I think they were doing the Cuban Shuffle….now I can’t get that song out of my head! (Can you tell they are twins?)
Leaving the dock for a sunset cruise
DIL and grandson Cade
This little place was owned by the former CEO of Health South (he’s serving time in prison for what I like to call “greed”)
My sweet grandson Cade…he was about to fall asleep
Too much sun and fun makes one sleepy!
The end of a beautiful day on the lake…I love spending time here
I was supposed to leave for the beach tomorrow but Tropical Storm Debby has other plans so hopefully she’ll be gone from the coast area by Wednesday and my BFF and I can head to Gulf Shores!
Happy Belated Birthday to your mom!!! Looking forward to some time at the lake next week...hoping to get lots of REST:)
ReplyDeleteYour grands are all so cute.
Blessings,
Linda
Your sweet Mother looks so cute sitting at the kiddy table. She looks to be about the same height as the crew. How adorable!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your Mom! We spend a lot of time at the lake, too. Great memories!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like it was a lot of fun for your mom and everyone else! I, like Christine, thought it was adorable that your mom was sitting at the kid's table. How sweet! The engagement ring (or should I say rock!) is beautiful. Hope you get to take your trip to the beach...sky here tonight was a very strange yellow...not sure what that means.
ReplyDeleteOh yes......let's just hate her (the bride to be). She is just gorgeous! She will make a beautiful bride! Looks like y'all had a great time. I love going to the lake. You mom is soooo adorable sitting with her grandkids too. I'm sure she enjoys get togethers like that.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great time! It's so sweet to see your mom at the kids' table, and the lake is just beautiful. You're really lucky to have such a great family, and the chance to spend time together on the water. :-)

ReplyDeleteJust found your blog!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful time on the lake, the water looks amazing! Your bride-to-be is just lovely and it says something that she has the young girls admiring her. :) I'm admiring her gorgeous figure! lol
That house on the lake is amazing, SO sad about the former owner....going from that to a prison. Obviously it wasn't obtained thru honest means. Greed indeed.
Enjoy your time at the beach!!!
