Lake Mead

This past weekend we got to spend some time away with some great friends down in Logandale, NV.

Our first day consisted of playing on the beaches of Lake Mead (Oliver's first time), Learning how to wake surf, Taking naps, Jet Skiing, and enjoying the 100+ degree temperatures.
Oliver was falling asleep while we were playing with the squirt guns. Either that was really boring or he was exhausted. He ended up taking an extra long nap that day on the beach...over 2 hours.
Sadly, we didn't take too many pictures because my batteries died. But we sure enjoyed the long day at the lake. The next day, we stayed at the house, played games, and swam. Most of us were sunburned and still tired from the day before. It was perfect to stay in doors when the temperatures outside were reading in at 106.

Later that night the adults got a couple of babysitters to watch all 10 kids and we headed to Las Vegas for dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. It was so much fun to sit at our round table (a highlight from dinner) and pretty much laugh the whole time. After a great meal and some delicious cheesecake, we headed back.

This vacation exceeded all of our expectations. We couldn't have asked for a better group to spend the weekend with. The adults, the kids, the weather...everything was perfect. Bret and Tiffani were so kind to invite us. It's certainly a vacation we wont be forgetting any time soon.

I'm so glad I thought to invite you, even if it was majorly last minute. I was extra glad that you guys could even come. We had the perfect group. I'm so happy you guys had a good time. We'll definitely do it again!
