Mollie's First Memorial Day

As you can see, Mollie was excited about her first trip to the lake this summer for Memorial Day.  We had plans for some big "firsts" for her, including boating and swimming in the lake, but we had a few tears with those activities and were much more excited about playing in her kitchen and riding around in the golf cart.

Cooking in the kitchen with a view, one of the big highlights of the weekend...
Day 1 - Activity #1 - first trip to the lake Kiowa Beach.  She wasn't quite as excited about the sand and water as we had hoped, but we still got some cute pictures of her checking things out... 


Activity #2 - boat trip.  She was loving the boat while it was still parked...

Once we were up an running, the tears came quickly!

When she found the floor, she did much better...

And once she was able to help Dad drive the boat, she even enjoyed the ride...
Day 2, her friend Sofie arrived, so here she is gearing up to go back to the beach.



Activity #1 - Family golf cart ride.  One of Mollie's favorite events of the weekend...
Activity #2 - beach time.  Mollie enjoyed it much better today.  She munched on loads of sand and crawled all over the beach with Sofie.

What a wonderful first at Lake Kiowa. Looks like it was fun in so many ways. And how fun to share with your little friend Sophie. You are growing up little Mollie girl to see you trying out all of these things - but your expressions tell it all. love those looks. Can't wait to share the experience too with your Nana and Papa, Mommy and Daddy, you and g'ma and g'pa. Love, us
