Brothersons Visit: Spring Meadow Lake

After breakfast, we took the Brotherson family to Faith Lane to check out our new home. The adults had a great time checking it out and sharing things for the future. But the kids were ready to go pretty quickly. ;) Maybe when we actually live there and there's a tramp and a fort and carpet and toys, they'll be content to just hang out. Funny kiddos!
We also wanted to share a bit of Helena with the Brothersons while they were here. Their trip yesterday was so long that everyone was a bit tired. Kristen and I let the boys rest for a bit at the apartment while we made some lunch. How cute are they?

Then we headed to Spring Meadow Lake for some lunch and some water fun!

We had lots of fun at the Beach and playing in the Lake. At one point clouds rolled in and threatened to rain on us. There was some distant thunder. All of a sudden someone loudly yelled, "There's Thunder, everyone out of the water!!!" Everyone froze and turned. It was Ethan. ;) So everyone except the Brotherson and the Seamons family got out. Kristen talked to him about how it wasn't his responsibility to tell people what to do.  He said he was just concerned for their safety. It took about 5 or 10 minutes before people realized they could get back in. We had a good chuckle about that one. Evan LOVED the beach. He was quite a hoot when the kids tried digging holes and filling them with water, He thought they were his personal hot tubs. He would crawl over to them, back up and climb in. Silly boy!

At one point after lunch, the boys went around the lake to the Fishing Dock. No one caught anything but everyone had fun taking the walk and getting to cast the fishing poles. We packed up when it started drizzling. We barely made it back to the table and packed the car before it started raining on us.
