Over the weekend, we headed out of town to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city life. It was a much needed break for us all--especially Daddy. It was a four hour drive to Lake Barkley in KY. This area is very special to us as Murray State is where Rob and I met. We stayed at a B&B named Harbor House and it was a beautiful old home built in 1730 that overlooks the lake. Our good friends Rick and Amy Casey along with Gibby and his new wife, Laci met us there. We spent Friday on the boat out on the lake. Evelyn donned her life vest that we purchased for her. Bless her heart, she struggled to move around in it much, but at least she was safe! The next day, we went to a cookout by the lake with Rick and Amy's families. Evelyn dipped her toes into the lake to cool off and later spent time on the playground nearby. Then, Sunday morning, Mommy and Evelyn took an early morning stroll lakeside. The morning was cool and a little misty, but the air was filled with the smell of a campfire burning. Mommy's mind was flooded with wonderful memories of going camping with her family as a little girl. I hope that someday, Evelyn will have the same fond memories of her childhood. This weekend was definitely a good start to creating them!
