Making Major Love History

"You are...making major love history!" That's a quote from the uber-cheesy KLTY radio morning show hosts whenever they're announcing wedding anniversaries of couples who've been together a long time. Well, this one's for you Bev & Lar (aka Jarret's parents)!!

They began dating in middle school, got married in college, and celebrated their 40th Anniversary a couple weeks ago. As a fun family event in honor of their amazing history, we headed out to Lake Lavon Sunday night for some family swimming, boating, dining, and relaxing. It was a wonderful time, and Miss Julia did AWESOME. She didn't fuss one bit in her life jacket, or getting in the cold lake, or staying up til past 9pm!

Gran & Poppy and their 4 grandkiddos: Jacob, Kendall, Julia, and Caden

And now, trying to drive with her feet

She thought it was funny to move the steering wheel with her feet

I love you Julia, but you look ridiculous!

Caden's turn to wakeboard! With his dad and Poppy's assistance

He got up every single time and never gave up. We're so proud of you!

How Julia spent her time while Caden and then Daddy wakeboarded. She sat in Gran's lap and never moved an inch the whole time. It was like she was a statue!

Swim Time!

Julia loved hanging out on the swim deck. When she stood, she liked stomping on the water that lapped up on the platform. When she sat, she'd kick her legs in the water or jump off to mommy or daddy.

And she even loved being in the cold lake water and splashing around. No fear (yet, at least), which is exactly what we were hoping for with swim lessons. Yea!!!! That meant the whole group was able to have a great time swimming together. What a fun night!
