This post is long overdue. In my defense, we returned late Sunday after being at the lake for 9 days. It's taken a little while to get back into the swing of things! For my family, the Fourth of July and Lake Cumberland (or any TVA lake) go hand in hand. Kudos to those who know what TVA stands for. :) Woodson Bend Resort is the icing on the cake for summer vacations. It feels like home - probably because my parents have moved so much in the past 10 years. Whatever the reason, it might be my favorite place on earth.
We split our time between Kevin's parents house and my parents condo, which was nice. At the condo there were plenty of visitors - my aunt Kathy and cousins Katie and Timothy visited for a few days. Then my dad joined us, followed by Justin, my cousin Josh, his wife Lisa, and their daughter Sarah. Josh has been celebrating the Fourth with us for probably 15 years, so everything felt "right" except of course Meredith not being there. The mood wasn't quite as festive this year, but we did still enjoy our time together. The week was full of waterskiing, golf, eating, laughing, and napping (yay for Grandparents!).
We enjoyed dinner at the Platt's on my dad's birthday. This is the best picture I could get of all of the grandparents with Warner.
We took Leslie, Abby, Ashley, and Linda on the boat for a few hours. It was Abby and Ashley's first time on the lake. They weren't too sure about doing anything behind the boat, but they enjoyed the swimming!
It's an annual tradition to ride the boat from Woodson Bend to Lee's Ford Marina (about a 45 minute boat ride) for dinner. The food at Lee's Ford is mediocre at best. The ride there is much more fun than the actual dinner.
Warner fell asleep in the bow of the boat and I made a makeshift tent to block the sun. We wore him out.
