July 4th weekend

We headed to Lake Texoma to celebrate our July 4th weekend. On Friday afternoon we meet Katie's parents, her brother and his daughter, and her older brother and fiance. Wesley has talked about driving Pop's boat for weeks now and was very excited to finally get to do it. We got up on Saturday morning, had breakfast then headed to the lake.

Wesley enjoyed filling up his Pop's minnow bucket with sand and water. His cousin Madison even helped him.
We were not sure if Wesley would get in the water so we started him out throwing rocks in the lake. After he was use to the water splashing on his feet we moved further in. He enjoyed jumping in the water and jumping thru the waves.
Madison really liked playing with Wesley's fishing pole.
On Sunday morning we got up and headed to the lake (yes at 7 am) so everyone could fish before it got to hot. Wesley went with Mark, Pops and Christy to fish; he helped drive the boat. Kay, Chad and Katie stayed on the dock to Perch fish. We had a great time and caught many perch and even a few turtles.
After Mark and Wesley got back from their fishing trip they fished, but Wesley didn't want to do that so we headed back to the house.
Madison brought along a LeapFrog computer and it had a song that counted from 1 to 20; Wesley loved that song so he played it over and over. The kids enjoyed running around dancing and holding hands every night.
They even enjoyed rolling around.
