Lake Webb

For Mother's Day Weekend, we drove down to California to spend the weekend at Lake Webb with my Mom for her birthday. The kids had so much fun! We stopped on the way there and spent some time with Josh and Brooks and the kids and then let the kids sleep in the "big castle" aka Whiskey Pete's. They LOVE the castle! On the way back we drove the whole way through which I thought was going to be really miserable, but it wasn't too bad. We met Brooks at McDonald's and let the kids play for a few hours. They got all of their energy out and then slept for a few hours after that. It was wonderful!

So, here is Lake Webb 2010:

Saxon refused to come to dinner because he just wanted to drive in the boat again with Grandpa Gregg. He sat on the blanket and held the boat keys. He wouldn't even take off his life jacket because he was hoping that someone would take him boating. Finally Ryan enticed him to come over to the table by cooking ribs, and apparently, my kids LOVE ribs!




Saxon went tubing with Kasen and Cailey and almost fell asleep.

Then, Nate took Saxon and Bridger tubing.
Kasen was my fabulous photographer!
Later, Saxon went on the Jimmy Jam all by himself!
He was so brave! Bubby held the flag for him.
Maybe at Shaver we will get him up on skis...









Another highlight of the trip...Aunt Lori's "little doggy."
Saxon would do anything as long as we promised him that he could hold Aunt Lori's little doggy afterward. He kept refusing to say "Aunt Lori" for us. He called her "the black lady" because she kept wearing black, and he called Courtney "Cailey's friend". It was so funny. Finally, but the end of the weekend, he gave in and started calling them by their real names.



The Beach:
Our campsite was right on the water with a huge shade tree in the middle. It was perfect! Here are some pictures of us just hanging out on the beach:

(Saxon floated out to the boat and hooked up the tube all by himself so that someone could take him tubing)

Thanks so much Mom for inviting us and taking care of us and the kids the whole time! We love you so much and hope you had a great Mother's Day and Birthday!!! We love you!
