Happy Birthday Courtney!

We had a wonderful time celebrating Courtney's 26th birthday at Lake Granbury. We stayed at The Lodge of Granbury; aunt Jackie, Courtney, Katie, Rebecca & Kaitlyn stayed in the unit below us, while Debbie, Deona, Ev & I shared the two-story unit above.

On Friday, we relaxed, fished, fed ducks, played Tripoli, drank margaritas and enjoyed each others company.

Everett & Mama wake up to a beautiful, peaceful view Saturday morning.

There are benefits to waking up early, on a Saturday morning...
Deona, Ev and I had a great time being first on the beach! Everett had lots of room for running, wading in the lake, and collecting lots and lots of treasures. Another great discovery this weekend, watching Everett play with his shadow.

Ev's tiny footprints...

Snack Time!


Later on Saturday, Grampy, Dondi, Roy and kids came out to join the fun.

Jordan (obviously) enjoying his snow cone.

Matthew's very determined to hang on to the toys. :) So cute!
Thank you aunt Jackie for bringing all the cool floats and toys to play with, everyone enjoyed them very much.
We all had a super-terrific time and glad we were able to celebrate with everyone. Happy Birthday Courtney!
