Lake Barkley

Last Saturday we took off for our annual Wilhoite Family Vacation! 

It was a short trip for us this year because Philip had to get back to work, as did Matt, and AJ was heading to FL the last half of the week.  so our 'house' made it a short week and all came back together early. But the few days that we were there were such a good time! 

Mom found us an awesome house that overlooked the lake. It had a spacious screened in porch and a living room for all of us to fit in. it was what we like to call a 'steal'. :) Too bad no one in the family knows the meaning of sleeping in. even my brother was getting up at the crack of dawn, which I was most disappointed in. ;)

We rented a pontoon sunday and monday. We only had one jet ski this year (don't ask) but it worked out great for us :) 

We left just before the temperatures got over 100 degrees. which is funny because the reason we quit going to Hilton Head was because it was just too hot there. So we started going a little closer, to the lake. I think that no matter where we go, we bring the heat. 

how we stayed cool

Emma did great on her first vacation, but I think by the end of the week it was almost too hot for her to get outside. 

I was sad that the vacation wasn't a full week, but happy that it means Philip is now done with his residency and he has all of July to relax and be home (minus one week he is going to FL). I can't wait to be a normal couple this month!! :)
