Miss Em had another cake that evening at the request of her sisters and the Killian girls!
Let me start by staying our weekend was suppose to be full of rest and relaxation. Sunday morning I woke late and to a flat tire! This happened the last time I was at the lake house so I know how to work the air compressor. Will and Luke were off to the triathlon. Betsy and I began to try to air up the tire. NOPE, not going to happen. Not only was it not going to happen, we blew a braker! Got the braker switched but the compressor was not gonna do it! So Betsy says we are going to change the tire. I have NEVER changed a tire! But in order to even THINK we are going to make it the two miles to the triathlon with six kids Iguess we are changing the tire. 
We got the jack out, the spare out and every started just fine... the problem came when we were trying to get the bolts loosened. We decided to stand on the wrench thingy while hanging onto the luggage rack! Good times!!! 
It was a messy job! Lainey wanted a picture with both of us! Great shot of my backside... Thanks, Lainey :) 
We got the completely flat tire off and the spare on! 
In 23 minutes I might add... Betsy is a rock star tire changer and I am her side-kick! We made it to the triathlon in time to see our hubbies ride their bikes into the transition area!
And watch the entire run!!!! Go Will...
And way to go, Luke!!!
After all that work, we had to do some more swimming in the lake.
Of course that was the real plan all weekend. 
We did gets lots of swimming in on Saturday and Sunday! 
But Sunday's swimming was much more rewarding after all our hard work!

We love camping at Inks Lake! Looks like y'all had a good time!
Shelley-- Found your blog from Sara Clouse's blog! Small world, huh? I was so glad to see this was YOUR blog...I just had such sweet memories of Fr Bob and Catherine on Sunday, and wished I knew of a way to tell you, and here's the way! Love to you and your sweet family.
Peace,
Rachel
Shelley,
So good to see you and your sweet family! Sunday found me at church, as usual, but instead of usual church thoughts, I found myself thinking about Fr Bob and Catherine, and just being so grateful for the time I got to spend with them. Thank you so much for sharing them with so many of us.
Your family is beatiful! --rachel
Too funny, I had a flat tire a couple of weeks ago. I had the same thing happen a couple of weeks ago, the nuts are impossible to turn. Impressed with your speed, looks like a wonderful time. Have you been keeping up on the Browns? Looks like Colt should get in at quarterback - we have nothing else!
That looks like a great weekend. Being on the lake is always. A good time. Really appreciate seeing Rachel's comment. I miss them so.
Thank you for all of your sweet comments! I read your blog everyday :)
Way to go girls! I think I would have had to walk! Looks like a fun weekend!
Awesome... I am just thankful you included a shot of your backside, too! ha ha! That pic of me is SOOOO attractive! ha ha!
It was a blast - we need to do it again (minus the flat tire!) ha ha!
