Vacation to Possum Kingdom Lake

Last weekend we went to stay at a Condo at The Cliffs Resort and Possum Kingdom Lake. Being scared of heights, you would think I would have avoided staying at a place called "The Cliffs" because it sure is high!! It was BEAUTIFUL out there but very hot.

Here is our condo.
Here is the inside of our condo. It was 2 bedroom THREE bath... why does it need a half bath?? And it was right next to the other bathroom.. very crazy but it was very nice!
Here is the view from the resort.

Here is the view from our balcony.


There were deer EVERYWHEREOn Saturday, we went to see the Dam. We also drove to Graham to do some antique-ing (FUN!) I found some treasures!



This is the land of the guy from Lonesome Dove. (I don't know the story, but I'm sure everyone else does)
On Sunday we spent the day out on the lake on a SeaDoo. It was a blast! But my knees killed me during!
Here is Hells Gate. It was beautiful.







Here is Matt on the Sea Doo and me still in the water..... It was NOT easy for me to get back on that thing. I made the mistake of getting off again after I finally got on. They need a little step or something for your feet.. all the strength is in my legs not my arms! When we first got on the Sea Doo I was scared we would both fall off at some point, but Matt tried hard not to let that happen because I wouldnt be able to get back on! I did have fun swimming around though. I think Matt was ready to drive off and leave me ;)

More June & July Pictures

Happy First Birthday to Isaac! He had a Mickey Mouse party. He LOVED his birthday cake. I think if they left it in front of him, he would have eaten the entire thing.

He had a big black eye for his party. He's always getting bumps and bruises.. he's so active! Matt and I got to watch him one night and he was such a GOOD boy. So sweet! I don't believe all the stories I've heard.. he was a perfect little angel ;)



Here is Pepere and Miss Kaitlin. She is so cute with pigtails.. we all call her "Boo" from the Monsters, Inc movie. She's a look-a-like!
Isaac opening his birthday presents...
I thought this was such a sweet picture... Andrew and Isaac playing (and Kaitlin looking on). I love these three munchkins more than I could ever imagine! I would claim each one of them as my own!
Mom and her grandkids... Kaitlin had her feelings hurt :( she's a sensitive little girl.. I know how she feels ;)
Pepere and his grandkids on Fathers Day.. Isaac is very fascinated with Kaitlin
Andrew helping Pepere open his Fathers Day presents... Isaac with a bow on his head

Here's another pic of Isaac with a shiner! I must say, that's the cutest little shiner I've ever seen!
Isaac going for the hairbow...
Here's a random picture of Mom and Dad's bunny. He's always nearby. They always have so many in their neighborhood.
Isaac on the 4th of July in his "American Boy" shirt.
"Where did Pepere go?"
He's looking for his Pepere who is out grilling our 4th of July dinner.
Me and "Katalina Porizkova" I started calling her "Katalina" and it made me think of the supermodel Paulina Porizkova and yes, she's just as beautiful!
Here are our "kids" after a walk. They have been to 6 weeks of dog training.... they are doing somewhat better with people/barking, but they haven't learned anything they should have yet.
Here is a random but CUTE picture of Isaac at his Memere's house. This is how she found him during his nap.
In June, we spent lots of weekends at Matt's parents' house helping them pack and move. They will start building their new house very soon.. we are very excited for them! We are also excited for my cousins, Brandon & Chelsea, who bought Matt's parents house. They moved it to their land in Huckabee and are getting it all ready to move in. It's amazing how God works!

Here are some cute pictures of Owen swimming at his Grandma and Grandpa's house.
I LOVE this picture. He's definitely a Throne... always in a hat =)
Here is a picture of Matt from this weekend. He's started working at the new Cowboy's Stadium as overtime. This is the first sporting event (soccer). He was there from 9am to 10pm (and it was very hot). Here he is on the field inside the stadium. He sure looks handsome in that big fancy stadium (and look how big the "BIG screen" is! It's amazing.)
Here he is on Saturday at a house fire. What a hard worker!
