You can't put a price on good times!

This past weekend we went to Lake Martin with some GREAT friends!!! It was such a good time and SO much fun to watch the babies play together. It was really good to catch up with everyone. In attendance were The Hill family, The Burns family, The future Mr. and Mrs. Stewart, Natalie (her husband was also at the lake but having a "man shower" at another lake location), and us. Most people went to Aquapalooza featuring Alan Jackson, but we didn't try it with babies in tow.
We also ate REALLY well. Jamie arranged it where every couple was in charge of a meal. Jamie and Trey provided a FANTASTIC Mexican feast on Friday night with homemade margaritas that were way better than the mix! For Saturday breakfast we brought quiches from Whole Foods and I made a Paula Dean cheese grits recipe that was really good, and Elaine and Jeff spiced up the Saturday night with some fantastic jalapeno burgers. They also made homemade scalloped potatoes and asian slaw that was really good, and a chocolate chip cake that was amazing. If I lived in their house I would weigh 1000 lbs!
Some pics...

Charlie, Margaret Anne, and Andrew. MA was showing Charlie some love!


Me, Natalie, Corrie, and Jamie relaxing while the dads put the babies down for their naps.

Nose cups left over from my 30th birthday. For some reason we thought these were HILARIOUS.


Someone was really tired and in need of a little lovin.' And then there was Benjamin and his 'stache in the background.


Mommies with babies in life jackets. They didn't really like them, but got used to them after a little while.
CUTE, cute Andrew chewing on a straw while we were waiting on our pizza at Chuck's. He is the sweetest thing, and SO mobile! Notice MA in her hat getting a cool drink in the background.
Thanks again to the Hills for having us!
