Lake Week 2026

I believe this is our 3rd annual lake week!

We decided that because we returned from Spain not too long ago, we'd stay at the lake the week after July 4th instead of the week before.

We were definitely busy, busy and had so many family and friends come hang out with us throughout the week!

We started off with C's friends for his birthday!  They stayed the night, tubed, surfed, did flips off the neighbor's dock, fished, and ate ice cream sundaes!  Whew!  C should have felt well-celebrated!








While M was taking the boys back to Greenville, Laura and Liz and her family made it up for the night! We always have such a good time visiting with them!  S was still with her friends at Lake Hartwell so she missed out on the fun unfortunately, but the rest of us floated and tubed and watched fireworks at The Reserve from the lake.  A great way to spend the Fourth of July!!














S spent a few days at Lake Hartwell with her friends before joining us!




Gigi and Grandpa made the trip up for the day!  We went to lunch at The Lighthouse and then spent the afternoon floating!  And, of course, celebrated C's birthday again:)
















A few more friends came up throughout the week and lived lake life with us!

The Phillips

Caleb, Larson and Will

The Saunders



We were also able to spend a little bit of time with just our family of four!












We also threw in a trip to see Thomas Rhett in Greenville.  M and I had tickets that we purchased a while ago but were not sure until the day of whether or not we were going to go, S went last minute with a friend, and we left C at the lake with pizza and video games:)  Everyone was happy!










What a great week!  I think next year we should see about doing two weeks at the lake:)
