Chicken Man is at it again ~ at the Lake House


Oh no, he is at it again. Have chicken will travel.
Everyone just loves his chicken. I swear he was a
Chicken in another life....lol



I have never tasted his chicken but I know it is
good because everywhere we go they ask him to
cook it for them. Even when we are racing they
call ahead of time to say are we doing chicken ~ is it
chicken tonight :-)



We are tailgating keeping Scott company and munching
down the gold fish. Tyler loves those fishies!



Waiting for that chicken to get done....common Uncle
Scott, whats takin sooooo long?



We will eat a little and then go out on the boat and
pull the kids around on the tube. Ohhhh what fun!

Time with Carl and Dana at the Lake House


Okay, this was after the day was almost over
and the boys were playing nail biting ping pong :-)
you would have thought a million dollars was riding
on the game. Prego Danielle starting to look tired.



Nate taking his game seriously!!!



Uncle Carl definitely took his game seriously...
lol




Jamie waiting for her turn to play. The guys would
not give the table up.



Getting ready to send the ping pong into the
next Century...haha



Jonny and Danielle getting ready to call it a night.
Something about the sound of water and being
on the Lake.



The three Amigo's eating chicken that Scott cooked
all day long for everyone. Just call Scott the "Chicken
Man".



Is this what you call a "tailgating party"?


Okay, this picture was taken from the weekend
before. Hi, pretty girl. She was not feeling well
this day and Dana had to take her to the hospital
that night ~ they thought she had appendicitis. Poor
thing!



Danielle still has 2 and a half months to go. Oh baby
you are ready to pop!

Fun with Carl and Dana over the summer!


Crystal making sure Kobe is covered up so that
he does not get sunburned!




I am backing up a little bit. This is our first weekend
after school is over. We are at ESTA Drag Strip watching
Carl and Carl Jr. race. Austin, Crystal and kids came to watch also.



Uncle Carl cannot wait to get on the track!!!



Carl Jr. waiting in line for his turn.




Carl Sr. doing the same. It was the first warm day
I think we had up to this point. A very chilly spring and summer.




The smile we all love.



Riliegh loved being at the track. She was not afraid at all.





Same with Tyler.....he loved it! I bet if he had a
little race car he would have been making all those
noises like our boys use to do at that age.....I love it
and miss those days! Shelby taking care of Tyler to
make sure he did not get into any trouble.

Rileigh sitting with Carl Jr.


Tyler helping Uncle Carl out and being a good
boy :-)

Me and my Man!!! Boy do I love him.....

Austin chatting with Uncle Carl. Uncle Carl kickin back.

Checking out the rail after the time trial.

Austin and Tyler enjoying the day together. Like
father, like son.

Scott and Carl enjoying good quality time together doing
the things they love to do.















Keep on COOKING Shebly....WE are LOVING it!


As you can see, Shelby is at it again! Boy oh boy are we loving it. I highly recommend to anyone with pre-teen age kids the William-Sonoma Fun Food Cookbook...it is a pictured step by step cookbook that any child can follow with the help of mom. Also, The Magic of Jello (by Sterling) both from Barnes and Noble. All jello recipes consists of jello, ice cream, cool whip, graham crackers etc....all very easy and very elegant looking.



Good thing I have my garden....it definitely helps with the presentation of the table!

































Summer fun at the Lake House before Sunny goes in for surgery


AGAIN, I POSTED EVERYTHING FROM THE END OF THE DAY DOWN TO THE BEGINNING OF THE DAY!!! START FROM THE BOTTOM....IT IS A DAY OF SWIMMING, BOATING, TUBING, PLAYING GAMES AND OF COURSE IT WOULD NOT BE A DRAKE OUTING IF SOMEONE ISN'T SHOWING THEIR BUTT!!! :-)
