The long awaited.......

Lake Weekend! The kids have been waiting to go to the lake all summer. We have been so busy that we had one free weekend this summer since Memorial day, I know, crazy. We headed to Grandma and Grandpa's lake house this weekend to play, and play we did. Noah and Della both rode the jet ski. It took Della a bit of time to decide to but she ended up liking it and saying "Wehoo." Noah's whole goal this weekend was to learn how to water ski. He worked really hard at it. He got up for about a second, long enough for me to snap a pic below and then was down. We tried to explain to him that one weekend was not quite enough time to learn but he is quite determined. He finally got tired and took a break. The kids both went tubing with Steve. Della liked it until she fell off the tube and got water in her nose.

Marlee did well. She doesn't sleep great in the car but she is such a happy camper that I guess it really doesn't matter. She had a good time on the boat and even got in the water some. On the way home we had three tired fish but they had a great time. Next year we are hoping to make it more than once!
