We went to my Aunt Betty & Uncle Andy's this past weekend.........a GREAT way to kick off our summer, for sure!! We left Sat. morning early and came home late Monday night. We had an AWESOME time. Living in Virginia as well are my 3 cousins (Aunt Betty's 3 kids). Brenda lives about 50 feet away, and Sandy & Russel live about 25 minutes away (but like 2 minutes from eachother). So, when we go visit, we get to see everyone! It's so great!
The boys have so much fun exploring the "land", riding the tractors & golf cart, and for Nathan this time, "riding" on Aunt Sandy's motorcycle. They learned how to get "honey" from a honeysuckle from their cousin Bailey, and discovered the mulberry trees up by the road. They went for a quick dip in the pool at Aunt Brenda & Uncle Rick's (next door). It was filled by a truck on Monday (they have well water, and you don't want the well to run dry!), and the boys were swimming less than 2 hours after it was filled!
Our favorite spot there is down by the creek on the bridge.........lots of fun. Sometimes we float boats down, or just sticks. We usually "fish" with sticks and string, too.
We can't say enough about how much fun we have........and the best part is our family. Everyone is so warm, generous and so much fun! These are the best summer memories we can imagine for the boys to be able to look back on. We are truly Blessed!
