Playing at the Lake

We have recently purchased a new toy and honestly we can't get enough of it.  We weren't really planning on buying a boat but one of Paul's coworkers overheard him talking about how he had always wanted one and offered to sell him one cheap.  It did need a little bit of work but a good friend of ours came over almost every night for a week and got it running great!  Since then we have taken it out several times.

We don't have lots of toys yet, but of course our first toy had to be a tube.  Most of the kids think it is great.  Here is Cam giving the thumbs up for GO FASTER!

I think Morgan's face tells how she is feeling about the ride!

Allie was pretty nervous at first but had a good time.

Liza and I originally tried to go together but there wasn't enough air in the tube and it started to pull us under.  She did not like that at all and we had to do quite a bit of persuading to get her to try again.  But she had fun.  Here she is going with Morgan.

A couple weeks later we got a knee board.  Cam was very excited to try it out and actually got up on his 3rd try!  Way to go Cam!

Of course the lake is more fun when lots of people come and enjoy in the fun.  Here is my sister Carla

Liza's favorite part is the beach.  She loves to play in the sand

And search for treasures!

My niece Isabella likes to come too.  She told Grandma that she wanted a boat too

Out for a ride

Even though it wasn't a planned purchased I am totally hooked and in fact ready to go to the lake right now.  Anyone want to join us?!
