We had such a wonderful long weekend visiting Ty's family, and Jake made the whole trip to the lake in Mooringsport and Pop's ranch with just two little mosquito bites, but sure enough when we brought him back to Houston he got 7 bites in our backyard Tuesday night. I realize this isn't the end of the world, but I hate for him to get bitten! Poor little guy has 4 bites on his sweet face...I ordered Avon's skin so soft yesterday and we're going to try that to prevent them in the future since we can't use the repellent with DEET on him. We'll see if this works...
It was so refreshing to be out of the city for awhile. We spent two nights in Mooringsport with Aunt Kaye and Uncle Kenny and got to spend some quality time with Ty's Grandparents as well. Grandad cooked some wonderful deer steaks for us and Marie spoiled us with her great cooking. They just built a balcony to their deck on their house by the lake and it has a beautiful view. Kip was also in town and Ty got to go fishing with his cousin a bit as well. Jake loved the lake and sat out on the deck with Aunt Kaye and Gaga and just loved it. We had church out on the dock on Sunday morning and got to listen to some of Grandad's wise words.
In Marshall, Jake was spoiled some more by Pops and Nonnie. He spent more time with his cousin Elsie Jane. She loves Jake and just kissed all over him and kept hugging him. It was very sweet.
Now we're back to the big city and those darn mosquitoes!
