Growing up, my family had a house at Cumberland, and we would all spend at least three weekends at the lake together. That was my grandparents, aunts & uncles, cousins, and us...sharing two bathrooms...and it was awesome! (All the cousins were a lot smaller then and didn't take up so much room- ha!) I have the best memories from those trips- especially the week that we always spent together around the 4th of July. It was a really special time, and Cumberland will always mean a lot to me!
Last Friday we headed out early for a long weekend there- our first trip since early last summer. While Creed had to work, we still got to spend time with Grandmom and Grandpa, as well as Paige, Luke, and Briana.

Lunch at Wolf Creek Marina
Dinner at Jamestown Marina
While we were eating, a rain storm rolled through, and thankfully, ended just as we finished dinner. The kids were thrilled to see a rainbow.

(We sure missed having Daddy there!!!)
While Grandmom, Grandpa, and Paige stayed at the Lodge, we shared a cabin with Luke and Bri. It was really nice and had a fantastic layout. The boys LOVED staying there since it was new to them. :)
Saturday night we had dinner with Aunt Cathy and Cousin Emma on their houseboat. (Unfortunately, Uncle Mark couldn't make it because he was sick.) Caleb really has a thing for houseboats and has already planned to have one when he grows up. He loved sitting in the Captain's chair!

(I was so thankful for everyone's help that evening. I do not do well on houseboats, and even though we were tied up at the dock, the slight rocking had me taking Dramamine within five minutes of being there. Luke and Bri helped with the boys so much during dinner!)
We love State Dock!
A Big THANKS to Grandmom and Grandpa for such an awesome weekend!!!
