This past weekend the Blind Pig family enjoyed a flip flop weekend. There were lots of:
Sisterly Harmony,
Boat Riding,
Uncle Sam
Driving Lessons,
Swimming,
Sand Playing,
Treasure Hunting,
Fishing, and Fish Eating. We stayed with The Deer Hunter’s Uncle Sam and Aunt Wanda. I’ve wrote about their place at the lake before.
We’ve been visiting the campground for years-even before we had the girls. Yet, each time I visit I’m intrigued by the old house and out buildings that sit amidst the campers. I always want to know what it was like to live in that house-before the lake was even there-I wish the old house could share it’s stories-it’s wisdom with me. This past weekend-I got a little peek into the history of the house-a little peek back in time-back to 1863.

What a fun weekend. It reminds me of when I was about Chitter and Chatter’s age. Our family had a boat, and we spend most weekends in the summer at a nearby lake swimming, skiing, and picnicking. Good times. 🙂
What a great weekend. Your old style family values are showing again….and it is a beautiful thing to see!
What treasures did the girls find? Did I hear something about sunburn?
If walls could talk…we must have a treat coming up soon!
Oh! forgot to say that flipflops are $1 this Saturday at Old Navy!!! If you can fight the crowd.
Looks like such fun!!
We’ll be camping this weekend!
Have a blessed day.
how fun!
What beautiful photos!
Looks like a lot of fun on the water!
Sounds like a flipity flopity weekend!!
🙂
what a nice weekend! look like fun. We’re still wearing jackets here in the mornings, but today is supposed to warm up. Looking forward to your post about the houses.
I’ve always wanted a place by a lake. A little cabin with a big fireplace and a screened-in porch where you can play cards and board games under the yellow bug light and hear the crickets and the frogs talking. And the sand in the sheets, can’t forget about that part! 🙂
Where’s Tipper in her swimsuit?
Looks like a great way to spend the weekend! We were in flip-flops too 🙂
What a fun time! You are truly blessed! I love that show “If Walls Could Talk!” blessings,Kathleen
We just had an unseasonable cold snap (frost in some places), so I’m really envious. The sky looks so pretty in those pictures. Sigh….
Sounds like it was a great weekend.
I am looking forward to this coming weekend, I have four days off.
Looks like you all had a great time. Anxious to hear about the old house, I loved the show If Walls Could Talk.
All of that looks so wonderful. “If Walls Could Talk” is such an excellent show. It really highlights all of the reasons to love an old house.
Always like when you all go to the lake. Love all that land and water. The girls look like they had a blast driving the boat. My Uncle Richard let me drive his once, but I wasn’t very good at it and couldn’t keep it straight. Guess that’s why I can’t drive. 🙂
That was a great shot of the wake left by the boat with the hills and the sky beyond. Now that’s what I would call a ‘money shot.’ xxoo
Tipper,
Sounds like you had a fun weekend. You’re so fortunate to be able to get away as a family and enjoy boating, swimming, and being together. Have a great Memorial Day!
Sounds like fun!
We haven’t had our boat out yet, but I hope it’s coming soon. Too cold for swimming for me.
Can’t wait to hear what the house had to say.
This looks like alot of fun.
I love the boat riding picture.
Makes me feel like I’m right there.
Oh this makes me so ready for summer! Looks like it was a blast.
You all are lucky for the boating and fish eating adventures. It’s still too cool here for the river. BT did get the boat out of the shed last night. He vacuumed and washed it. He’s got the boatin’ fever.
Good family fun!
What a great week-end you all had. We did flip-flops this week-end, too, but my daughter ended up with a broken toe. So, no more flip-flop football for her!
I love getting away like that…fantastic! It was 35 here this morning…I am so ready for swimming and boating and outside playing-around…can’t wait to hear about the lake house!
Oooh, I can’t wait to hear what the house at the lake has to say! Looks like a blast of a weekend. I love those kind, when you aren’t at home and can really enjoy the family.
Tipper: Looks like a fun time was had by all and glad to hear the fish were biting. A fish fry at the lake, how can you get any better then that.
