Lake Gaston with Church Friends

Several of our friends from church headed to Lake Gaston this weekend just to hang out and have some fun enjoying the sun! 
 
Friday at lunchtime the girls and kids headed to the lake! 
We had two cars packed full.  After we unloaded we headed to the water to have some fun.
After swimming the kids played with some poppers on the dock. 
Ella showing me hers! 
The kids rode bikes and played on the porch while we cooked supper.
 
When we put the kids to bed, Ella threw the biggest fit because she wasn't tired and wanted me to lay with her and scratch her back.
A few minutes later I found her like this.  Asleep in the hallway!
 
The girls had a slumber party and did mud masks! 
The guys went out to catch some catfish and when they came in...they crashed! 
All sprawled out!
 
Saturday morning we ate breakfast on the deck
Our little blonde headed babies who love each other! 
My kids loved having Bradley there to play with! 
It didn't take the kids long to get their bathing suits on and headed to the water!
Splashing with their daddies 
The girls trying to get some sun and relax - Kristin, Kelly, Heather, me, Jamie, and Audrey!
Love these girls!

After we got all the kids in bed, we started playing games.
We had so much fun! 
The guys were intense during Taboo

Caleb was asleep on the couch and apparently fell off while we were playing games but we were laughing so hard that we didn't hear him fall.
