Memorial Day And More

This past Memorial Day weekend was spent at the lake, our home away from home! It was so nice to get away from all the stress that has been our lives recently. This was also a very exciting weekend, because Bandit got to meet his new cousin Ethel! Ethel is little sister to Lucy and both are Great Danes. Bandit wasn't so sure about playing with her at first. She is only 12 weeks and already twice the size of him. Introductions went well considering that they didn't go too well with older sister Lucy. I'm glad they were able to make friends!

Ready for some fun!

Introductions!

We did lots of this!

We had a small crowd this year, and we weren't too lively. Kate, John, Jay, Mymama, Tucker, and I all went to bed at 10 on Saturday night! I think we are all starting to grow up! It was a weekend full of fun, laughter, and delicious eats! Mymama made fried chicken Saturday night per request of Tucker. It was delish, but oh so bad for my diet!

Suiting up!

Tucker skiing!

Some lake silliness!

Sunday, Tucker's parents joined us along with Emily and Andy. We had to leave Sunday because we were heading to the beach on Monday! Tucker surprised me earlier this month with a vacation for a few days to Orange Beach. We are always so busy, and it is rare when we actually get to vacation just the two of us. We cherished every moment, and we had a blast just enjoying each other's company!

The view from my chair!

Life IS Better at the Beach!

A scrumptious dinner at one of our favorite eats, The Original Oyster House! Following dinner, we followed tradition and had Scoops Ice cream! Yum!

Put Put Golf!

The volcano behind me was erupting!

We saw this boat at the Wharf.

My yacht just happened to be here as well! Ha!

As you can see, we had a great time! Now it's back to school and work. I'll be busy packing up my classroom and moving while Tucker will be sweating away delivering packages. Why does vacation have to end?
