Lake Nana, Part 2

Brace yourselves for the fun . . . and a TON of pictures.  All of these were taken through the lens of my very talented cousin, Cameron!  Thank you, Cam!  {Note:  having a budding photographer on vacation with you is always a WONDERFUL thing!!}

It didn’t take us long to realize that the combination of Virginia heat and not napping (or sleeping at all, really), can make babies a little crazy!

After we got back on track (sort of) with sleeping, we continued to enjoy all of the things that we LOVE about Lake Anna!  While this is unusual, the boys were very fond of the rare wicker flamingo, now called “MINGO!!” in the house:

They also really enjoyed their time with Bumpa—on the dock, on walks, and on the boat . . . and they wanted to be with him all of the time!

Bumpa, will you let me out of this screened-in cage?

Several mornings, Bumpa and the boys went on walks in the wagon, and they always came home with beautiful flowers for their mama!

But, the boat may have been the biggest hit of all!

I would rather not talk about how this lovely animal is wading in the lake . . .

Doesn’t William look comfy?

And, they very much enjoyed bouncing like monkeys on Nana’s bed!  {You see, Nana is very nice to welcome monkeys into her room at all!}

Nana has had LOTS of experience with monkeys (missing from this picture:  Cousin Quint, Cousin Keith, Uncle Christopher, and the Reppard 4)

For Father’s Day, the dads always get amazingly wonderful gift bags full of treats courtesy of Aunt Kellie and Cousin Cameron . . . this year, their gifts turned them all into thugs . . . hmmm . . . it was scary and funny at all once!

And, on that note, I will leave you with a little more cuteness to brighten your day!  IMG_5733       IMG_5535   IMG_5393

If you step any closer, I will have no choice but to blow bubbles all over you . . .

What sweet pictures!! Looks like you had lots of fun. Did the boys cooperate on the plane? We are still unsuccessfully working on our inside voice. But, of course, why would you wisper when you could yell something and more people could hear?!?
