Two Fish!

This past weekend, we went to the family house outside Timpson, TX to spend the weekend with Lane's parents to celebrate Skeetz's (Lane's dad) birthday. The weather was beautiful and we all had a great time. We picked blackberries, relaxed, and Dane had a big, big first...he got to go fishing at the pond with his Dad and Pa Pa in the boat! Needless to say, Dane gave himself credit (and we did, too) for all of the fish caught. They caught at least two fish on Friday, and Dane just kept saying, "Two fish! Two fish!" It was so cute. He got to go fishing again Saturday morning, and I think he definitely shares his Pa Pa's love of fishing, which I know they will both enjoy for years and years and will get to spend many special moments together.

Each year for Skeetz's birthday, Wren (Lane's mom) always makes him strawberry shortcake. Let me tell you, to my knowledge, she is the only person who really knows how to make strawberry shortcake right! It's so wonderful! So, we all enjoyed that, especially Dane.

Happy Birthday, Pa Pa!

We had a great weekend and we had such a wonderful visit with Wren and Skeetz! We are so blessed to have such wonderful parents, and it's always so good to be able to get away and spend time together.
