Well, we've been working on it one way or another for the past 2 1/2 years, so we finally found "the lake house". We closed on a place on Lake Martin, close to Auburn, AL on Friday. I cannot express how excited we are! We've wanted a lake place for us to relax and enjoy the water (especially Dave, the boat lover that he is), but we also wanted to have a place for the kids - to create memories. I hope this lake house serves us well..... Good times, here we come. We have memories to make.
Dave also searched and searched for a boat and found the perfect one. It's a 2003 Cobalt, 24' and it's a nice one. I have a feeling Zach may be driving more than Daddy. Zach loves to be the captain, so I cannot wait to see how this summer turns out! Olivia just wants to catch lizards and frogs, hmmm, imagine that! She's very excited to see the wildlife this place has to offer. We have plans to take our bug catcher and all the essential tools for the insects. They have their fishing poles ready as well. 
Dave and I, on the other hand, are furiously working in the free time that we have (don't have) to figure out furniture, moving a dock, and all the other goodies wrapped up in home ownership. Luckily, Dave is home for most of May, so at least he will not be jetsetting off to Europe until June. Unfortunately, he will be traveling most of June, so we'll have to take plenty of pictures for him.
We are very, very happy and grateful for our new place. We cannot wait to enjoy it!
