Lake Texoma

When Micah did his triathlon we decided to take a little extra time and make a family vacation of it. We found this cute little cabin off Lake Texoma. You guessed it's on the border of Texas and Oklahoma.



We must have taken a million pictures. Here are just a few.


This was in the clearing just outside the cabin. Do you think Sadie could get a little chubbier or Merik could get a little goofier?


We had fun fishing. Since we didn't actually have any hooks the only thing we caught was "Merik Shark"!

There was a fire pit but since someone forgot the skewers (oops) and the kids were totally worn out from waking up at 4:30am for the race, this was our version of smores. I told the boys this was my kind of camping. Micah quickly corrected me and said "This is not camping." Well it is if you're gonna get me to come!


After a much needed good nights rest, the owner of the cabin let us borrow his boat and shoot across the lake to this beautiful sandy beach. While we were playing Merik asked if we could "move here next". To say the least they loved it!

Can't forget Sadie. She was such an angel the whole trip! Someday she'll be right out there with her brothers. You can see the excitement in her eyes as she watches them play.

She is so chunky! I love it! I am glad you're having such a fun time. Are you going to be sad when you leave next year?

Looks like lots and lots of fun! Funny how our kids think moving is like something you do all the time! My boys just told me today they want to move to a different place. Silly kids! And Sadie looks adorable in her chubby little cuteness!
