Memorial Day Weekend






























































































We headed down to the lake of the Ozarks for Memorial day- we left Thursday night when Zach got off work hoping that Sawyer could sleep most of the way there. I kept him up that afternoon so he would be extra tired and he fell asleep before we even pulled out of our developement. He slept for about an hour and then was up and hungry so we made a pit stop and ate and after that he slept about the last 2 hours of the trip. We spent the whole day in the pool on Friday- Sawyer LOVES to swim so he was thrilled. We took him on the jet ski and he loved that as well, until he fell asleep! Guess he was relaxed :) The next day when Sawyer saw Zach go on the jetski without him he cried "daddy vroom vroom, daddy vroom vroom!" So daddy had to take him for another ride. And he loved that! Val got him a blow up jet ski and he scooted around on it all over the living room and would smile when I told him "you are just like daddy!" He made motor noises and looked proud. He is his fathers son!








Sawyer is quite the little water bug and a pretty darn good swimmer! We could barely get him out of the pool! We even let him swim in the lake- he was thrilled to be big like daddy. Every time I tried to get him out of the lake he would throw a fit. Finally I took him out and he didnt cry and I asked him "are you done" "yea," he said "im done" Its so fun to hear him use his words like that! He must have been worn out!








We spent most of our time the whole weekend in the pool, and taking boat rides. We also went to a neat winery where and old insane asylum had been. It was GORGEOUS though- it was up on a bluff overlooking a river that runs into the lake. The weather was perfect- warm but not too hot, sunny with a nice breeze. We def. got lucky!
