4th OF JULY Weekend at the cabin 2008

Here are just a bunch of pics from our Family Weekend at the Lake House over the 4th of July! We all had a great time - kids play and swim at the house and off the boat. TUBING ABOUNDS......All day, every day! :) Bonfires, Mark's annual (legal) Fireworks display off the beach, Flag fruit pizza, bbq's and just hanging out!

This is one of everyone's favorite weekends of the summer - thanks M&D for having such a great place to congregate! We love it and YOU! :)

Lots of pics...... This is how we live.... :)

Fields Visit in June!

We had a fun night out with our good friends, Bill and Kathy... We miss seeing them as they live (for now) too far away! We had a great night and then Kat and I had a fun "sisters" sleepover!

Thanks for a great night - can't wait to see you again soon! (in MS) Pray for Bill as he has recently been deployed to Iraq until January. They have 3 kids - ages 6-2 ....They miss him and we just all pray for it to go by quickly and for all to be safe! :)

Love ya'll!

Thank you also to G&B! What a great time we had! I am sorry I hit your house with my car at the end :) Love you both!!!!!!!
