Smith Mountain Lake - Part 2

Quite a full kayak, I'd say.

 

Poor girl just wants to go to bed.

 

 

Joe Frog.

 

 

We took a tour of an alpaca farm. This is Rosie. She was my favorite.

 



 

Poppy and Belle reading books.

 

Belle had her first smore. She was in heaven.

Such a special part of the vacation was that Roo Dog got to come with us. The house was super dog friendly and he had an absolute blast the entire week. It was so nice to not have to leave him at home.

 

It was the first time both of the boys rode in the tube alone and, it was Joseph's first time in the tube all together. They were fearless. They kept wanting Poppy to drive faster.

 



Annabelle wanted to ride alone as well, but when Mommy refused, she settled for a ride with Daddy.

 

Me and my Mama.

Mama requested a family photo. I think it came out pretty darn well considering we used a timer and were trying to get 7 people to look descent in the same shot!

There was an ice cream boat on the lake. A highlight of the week for sure.

 

The men played a pretty intense game of putt-putt.

 



 

They even got to camp out in the front yard for a night.

The boys even went kayaking on their own.

 

My favorite movie is What About Bob? and here is where they filmed it. I was so excited to be able to find the house.

 

The highlight I think for the boys was that they were able to go fishing for the first time. Poppy bought them some poles back in June and they patiently waited to use them at the lake. They had a blast. They caught 6 in total. Daddy bought a fishing permit for a year so they'll have plenty more time to use it up.

 

Here's the first culprit.

 

Such amazing memories were made that we'll cherish forever.
