Memorial Day Weekend Getaway

I know Memorial Day was over a week ago but I’ve just now recovered from my sunburn to allow me to sit in a chair. Heather of course left the lake with a beautiful bronze tan while I returned home looking like a lobster, again. We headed out to Blue Bill Point on Lake Ft. Gibson to meet up with the family on Saturday morning. This was our first trip to take with the girls so we were a little nervous about how well they would do in the car. We loaded up all of our camping stuff and strapped the girls kennel’s to the top of the car and headed out for the weekend.

We made it to the campsite around 11ish and setup camp and after all that hard work we finally had time to sit down and enjoy a tasty beverage before getting our turn on the boat. I was able to get a few passes in on the wakeboard before I passed out from exhaustion! I haven’t really been active at all since my knee surgery last September and boy did it show. The weather was great everyday with the exception of Sunday night’s rain. We headed down to Fun Island, a small island on the lake with a sandy beach, on Sunday for a couple of hours just to check it out. The recent flooding had the lake in pretty bad shape but the weekend was a blast overall. Don’t forget to check out our Memorial Day Pictures.

I’ve been pretty busy putting the final touches on my annual float trip coming up on the 21st of June. This year we have four bands booked and the fun starts on Friday and goes through Sunday. This should be our best trip yet as long as the weather cooperates. If you’re bored or interested in attending the event this year feel free to check out the site Frosty Keg Float.

We also wanted to send out our Congratulations to our friends Dustin and Jae who just found out they are expecting a new baby boy (yes, it’s a boy… I just know these things) in February.  Heather and I are looking forward to being one cool Aunt and Uncle to the little tike.
