So, our family is in the middle of a week stay at Lake Gaston North Carolina. This is Bryan's families 8th or 9th year coming to the same house. The house is a 3 story log cabin and we have crammed 16 people in. Funny thing is we never feel crowded. It is beautiful here. We have our own beach leading down to the water, a floating dock and a slide on the fishing dock that the kids can have fun on. The first days with kids are always a little rough. You know, new place, new people. Kind of freaks them out. I think we are doing OK now. This morning was 60 degrees and breezy. If I could bottle it up and bring it to Florida I would. Here is a picture essay of basically what has been happening...
This is the few from the back porch...
This is what our "beach" looks like with people on it...
This is a long shot to the boat dock...
Raleigh has stood comatose in front of the television
(I am missing the pic of Hudson throwing a fit, but trust me, there have been plenty)
Hudson has been going around stealing the kids drinks and apples.
I think this explains how both of us were feeling day 2.
Raleigh loves spending time in the water with the big kids. They are really good with him.
Raleigh got brave enough to jump off the end of the dock.
And then he got brave enough to go off the end of the slide!
More to come...

It looks like you are all having a wonderful time. Taking everyones drink and apples most definately must be a boy thing. It doesn't matter where we are all the girls are yelling "Trever is drinking my drink." LOL Have a wonderful vacation.
That is the most awesome trip! I am glad yall get to do that every year! It looks marvelous! Have a great time & a safe trip back home :)
Looks like a wonderful time. You get to be around water, but you don't have to hose yourself down to get the sand and sea salt off of you :)
