A Little Lake House Vacay

Brenda and Alan bought a house in Austin on Lake Travis. The past two weekends we have gone up to hang out there and are loving it. The first weekend it was cold and windy so we didn't get any pictures but the second weekend was beautiful weather.
We spent some time out on the boat dock watching ducks pass by and boats. Eric really really loves it there and has been up there for the past 5 weekends fixing it up. The girls love it there and so do I. I love watching them just play around and love life. No shoes, playing and getting dirty. It's fun and relaxing with no pressure to feel like you should be doing something else or get something done. And a great view!
Fun with dad. He's a great dad and they had lots of fun fishing with him this past weekend.
Marshmellows for breakfast.
Fishing lessons
Livy loved it and was concentrating very intently the whole time just like she does any task.
Rachel trying to catch herself a big one!
Fun with daddy.
Some Grandma and Grandpa time! Thanks for having this great escape we can go to!

Those pictures remind me of us as kids at West Gilgo fishing it up. Why do you guys live so far away?...I can't ask that question enough. You took some great pictures Jess, the girls (and Eric) look like they had such a great time. What a fun get-a-way, i'm happy you guys have it!
