Lake Anna Vacation

This year for our summer vacation we went to Lake Anna in Virginia.  We had to schedule the trip months in advance and hope that Eric could get off work but unfortunately that did not work out.  Hayden and I made the trip without daddy but were happy to spend the week with my parents and my sister's family.  My brother-in-law, Sam was able to bring his boat to dock at the house so Hayden enjoyed lots of boats rides and tube rides with his cousins.  We spent the week boating, swimming in the lake, swimming at the community pool, fishing, and just relaxing with the family.  With help from pops Hayden was able to catch his first fish!  At first he was a little scared of the fish but after a few days of fishing he warmed up to them and even touched one.  We hope this will be the last vacation without daddy!  We all missed him a lot!  Here are some of my favorite pics from the week.  There were so many it was very hard to narrow down.  :)
