A Eventful Trip to the Lake

Well it never goes without saying, that when Leisha (my BFF) and I are together, it’s always a good time-and more often than not..a Eventful time! She has been in Texas, and we had some catching up to do, since it was so HOT we decided after work we’d head to her in-laws and hit the lake. It was SO NICE! We had little baby Holland with us, and that was a treat for me. And the adventure begins…
We get there, get all ready head out on the dock…it feels a little too cold to jump in, so we proceed to sit on the floaty in the water tied to the dock. Leisha goes for it first, as you can see by the photo barley makes it onto the floaty without falling into the water..FFEEEEWWWHH!!! She made it, so I manage to get on just fine and we have a great time, chatting it up, and relaxing. It felt so refreshing being on the water in the heat! Holland didn’t quite like the idea of taking a nap, so we then pull back to the dock, and bring the babe with us onto the raft. She was SO CUTE! Crawling around, and talking and laughing and smiling. Well…once again something else brought us to have to get off the floaty again and head back onto the dock. I hold Holland, and as Leisha puts one leg up onto the dock her other leg slipped out from underneath her, causing the hardest part of her shin to ram into my shin. Oh man, pain!! I got a immediate bruise, and shortly after came a bump. We couldn’t stop laughing, and to be completely honest I’m surprised we didn’t pee our pants! When we get laughing it’s very hard to stop (Cheer camp prayer time-OH my!) We get back on once again, and all is great, then little Holland poops. Ok, so since time is running short we decide to head back and call it a night at the lake. We have towels, a phone, a baby and us and a rope to hang on to as we step out of the floaty onto the dock above. There is one more large step up to the other dock that leads to the house, Leisha gets up fine, I have Holland and feel like I really shouldn’t try to make this step holding her, as I have short legs, and can barely make up myself. I looked at Leisha, and she said Come on, I’ll give you a boost. Well, her boost pretty much almost knocks me into the water with her BABY, In a small opening between two docks. Thank the Lord, we made it up, Barley..to safety! Again, once safe….ROTFL! Pure Craziness. We pack up, and head to the car..trying not to be late to pick up Leisha’s daughter Preslee at VBS.


Got there on time, hanging in the car-in my swim suit, mind you with only a cover up, feeling very out of place even in a church parking lot! When Leisha looks at Holland…we thought OH NO…we totally spaced and didn’t even change her diaper. She is a happy as a clam, so it slipped out minds. Oh man, the laughter begins again. I’m sure between then and the end many more little crazy things happened, but we packed up the girls, and heading to my house. I said goodbye, and grabbed my keys. I got all the way to the front door and realized I had grabbed Leisha’s Keys instead of mine. She was pulling out and on her way, when I ran and flagged her down. Then again…the laughter-this time keeled over laughter! I finally got my house key and she was on her way.

Really it was WAY funnier if you were there, but I had to share about our crazy trip to the lake. It’s something about the lake, We have sunk a paddle boat, took a big crash on a tube, Thrown people in fully clothed, once to ruin Randy’s brand new watch, Both tried to fit in a tube (see picture above-this was a couple years ago)

and I’m sure other things that are slipping my mind. No matter what, we had a great time and Im sure burned a lot of calories laughing, as that seemed to be the theme of the evening.


We decided, maybe it’s not to safe for us to hang out after a long hot day at work, with a baby in our care…You would think we could handle it! Nahh…We totally Can! Just gotta keep our peeps entertained with our crazy, times!!

Never a dull Moment, Love my BFF!
