Scharenberg's with the Venable's!

As always we had a fantastic day with the Venables up at Scharenberg's White Lake! Jacob of course was loved, hugged, and kissed by everyone. He had a great time playing in the sand and watching the big boys toss the baseball around, but I will have to say the SIDE (slide) was his favorite. I wish I would of gotten a picture but I was already in the water with him and his Dada was enjoying some male bonding with my uncles. I did not have the heart to make a scene and pull him away from all the laughs they were having on the beach. Oh well, in August we will for sure get plenty of pictures of his big smile when he goes down the SIDE. I am pretty sure thats all he talked about while we were in the water and on the beach. Anyone who would look at him he would point to the slide and repeat over and over and over SIDE, SIDE, SIDE, SIDE. Of course the slide he has at home is not nearly as neat as the one that is in the water!!

After we were all done with the slides and water fun we all took a walk with my dad around the golf course and Jacob loved watching the peacocks roaming around. I love the sound of Peacocks because it reminds me of Scharenberg's however they are very loud and Jacob was startled a few times. No crying but he deffinently backed up! I can not believe how fast they got to him in the first place, but I suppose when you are so use to the people. Scharenberg's had a new addition this year that we also enjoyed meeting. It was a beautiful talking bird that said all sorts of things. Hello, Pretty Bird, Polly want a cracker?, and my favorite Pretty lady, Pretty lady.


Well onto the "1 year later" pictures I talked about posting before. Arick and I were so busy having fun and catching up with family we forgot to do family pictures, but I still got a ton of great pictures of Jacob. When Arick, Jacob and I go up in August for our very own 1 week family vacation we will make sure of getting LOTS of family pictures. But for the real reason for these few pictures I am posting...CAN YOU BELIVE HOW BIG HE HAS GOTTEN??? Crazy what a difference 1 year makes!


ENJOY!
Jacob got a real kick out of the race car game in the Arcade room!


I really do have more pictures of him, but my camera is being crazy.
I am going to be very sad if I can not get the rest of the pictures off of it. Ugh!
