Our friend Brad had access to a lakeside condo down at Table Rock Lake in Missouri, so the Hulses, Barreras and us all went for a trip. We drove down Friday night and were pleased to find out that the water had been turned off in the condo. That made things interesting. We finally got it turned on midway through Saturday. In any case, we spent the weekend swimming at the pool, rented a jet ski and made our way into Branson for dinner. If you were pondering going to Branson, don't. It epitomizes everything that drives me crazy about American tourist traps.. If I had to bring a group of foreigners to only one place in the US, Branson would absolutely dead last on my list. It was beyond horrific.
Here's some pictures (more can be viewed here)
Mike, Brad and Brenden doing some synchronized stupidity.
More synchronized idiocy.

Brad thought it looked so tasty, he got one too.
Our failed picnic swimming trip. Somehow Brad's GPS device led us to Rockaway Beach. Not recommended. Julianne thought it was a bit creepy.

Love the pictures - especially the synchronized swimming. Emmie looks like such a sweetie, I can't wait to meet her! Julianne, I love the picture of you two...it's so sweet! Looks like you had a fun weekend.
Looks like you guys had fun on Labor Day. Emmie's smile is way cute! I like the pasty white picture of the two of you. But instead of saying "us looking pasty white" it should read...."Pasty white Brenden with good looking wife." Julianne has way more color. haha.
Julianne, You are the cutest mom ever! You look so happy to have that sweet baby girl of yours. I love the picture of you and Emilia at the pool! Sooo cute!
