KY Lake Trip #1 for the Summer






Every summer we go to KY lake. We have been doing this for many many years and were excited to take Turner for the first time this year. My parents and us went down Thursday night and Megs and David arrived Friday morning. This was the first time Maddie understood staying in a lodge and thought it was a lot of fun. There were two twin beds, so I got a bed to myself the first night, and Kevin the next. Turner slept in his pack-n-play and did great! We spent all day Friday by the pool while the guys played some card games. Turner swam for a bit, but it was mostly us girls (and David, who is a sun king:) Maddie was so tired by three o'clock that afternoon, she slept walked back to our room. After her nap, we all went to eat at the Cracker Barrel. Turner acted great and Maddie picked out a stuffed monkey that Boo Boo insisted on buying her.
We planned on spending Saturday at the pool again and then eating at Patti's for dinner-everyone's favorite restaurant. Well, our day didn't quite go as planned. Saturday turned out rainy and we were just hoping it wouldn't last all day. After breakfast, we were playing games in the lodge and dad got the call. His mother, our "mom", had been in the hospital and had taken a turn for the worse. After little discussion, we did what we knew we had to, and packed it up and headed back to Memphis. Our trip was cut a little short, but we were all able to see mom and she is still in the hospital, but possibly doing a little better. We had fun while we were there, and are talking about going back in a few weeks to enjoy that dinner at Patti's that we missed. We love you mom and dad and appreciate you taking us to KY every year for some fun, downtime.
