Oh Wewoka Lake….truly our family's favorite place on earth…our escape, our getaway, our relaxation…a place where so many happy memories are made. We've spent a lot of time at the lake this summer. The kids absolutely love it…all three of them. Reid spends his days fishing and exploring, while LilliAnn likes to swim and play with her pink retro kitchen. About a month ago, Reid finally got the hang of wake boarding and man, did he fall in love with it! He wake boarded a little bit last year, but this year he really figured it out. He just can't get enough! He's even doing jumps now and going back and forth over the wake. It's so fun to watch him because he gets really proud of himself and does crazy hand motions and bobs his head when he lands a jump!

The kids also enjoy spending time with Papa Glenn and Grandma Lucy. Mimi and Papa spoil us rotten when we're at the lake! The kids love running back and forth up the hill from our house to their house - or riding their Power Wheels! Papa spends most of his time entertaining Rush by driving him around in the Kubota/Gator. It's Rush's favorite thing to do right now!
Last weekend, Mimi cooked a big Sunday morning breakfast for us - sausage, biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs, cinnamon rolls, and grape juice. It reminded me of when I was a kid and used to spend the weekend at Mimi and Papas. Papa made the kids popcorn in his popcorn maker and then made them some nachos in the oven. LilliAnn thought everything was so good, and asked if Papa could come live with us so he could make us popcorn and nachos all the time. It's times like these when having kids is extra special because I'm able to re-live my own childhood. I'm so glad that my children are able to make fun memories with my grandparents.

I took these pictures last month and wanted to share them in this post.
Josh and Lacee live about five minutes from the lake house, so we get to see them often when we come to the lake!
…..
LilliAnn and Josslynn remind me so much of Lacee and I when we were kids - except these two may get along just a little better!

Doing what he does best! Fish!
…..
Cousins make the BEST friends!

We added a new swim dock this summer and the kids have really enjoyed it!

my pretty girl
…..
No matter how hot it is outside, these kids always end up in the hot tub!
…..
…..
Aunt Lacee is the queen of laying out! She was putting the new dock to good use!
…..
The kids love the beach area! The girls play in the sand and swim, while the boys hunt for crawdads!
…..

…..
He thinks he has to go everywhere that the big kids go!
…..
These two…they are as close as brothers!
…..
And no trip to the lake is complete without some tubing fun!
…..
Little sister is starting to enjoy fishing too!
…..
Reid will always remember fishing with his daddy. I love that they both enjoy it so much.
…..

…..
He was amazed at the crawdad! He LOVES any kind of animal or bug…and he's not afraid of anything! He gets so upset if the kids find a bug or a frog and don't let him hold it too! He'll start scramming, "BUG!!"
…..
He wanted to give it kisses! LOL!
…..
All boy…and all Rollins!
…..
We are very blessed to have such a wonderful lake house to enjoy as a family. And I know that we'll be enjoying it for many years to come!
