Gone Boating!

So... this summer we bought a boat! Not a new or expensive boat, but a great family boat. We have spent many hours in the water this summer. One of our favorite places to boat (and fish) is Mantua. It is a beautiful lake! The kids have loved tubing and Ky is bound and determined to get up on the Wake Board! It is much harder than it looks. I laughed and laughed the day Kylan and Eric tried getting up. I was driving the boat and I swear we spent almost two hours going around in circles. They would grab onto the line, signal for me to go, I would hit the gas and the rope would leave their hands and leave their bodies floating. We did it over and over. The funniest part is watching the kids on the tube behind the boat. They were being tossed all around! Heads bobbing, bodies flying everywhere and water in the face. I was really belly laughing!!! What great memories!!! Eric is in Heaven~ he has wanted a boat for a very long time!

My darling...... having the time of his life... I Love You Babe!

Getting on the tube is harder than it looks. I just sit back and laugh at everyone. I prefer to stay in the boat myself. Maybe that is why it is so funny watching all of them struggle, because I'm not struggling. I am sipping a diet coke and watching them get wet! What a life.

Life jackets are a must in our boat~ We would rather be safe than sorry. We were stopped in the middle of the lake and Chloee said "I want to see if it is scary". She walked over to the edge of the boat and jumped in. Ky was already in the water getting onto the tube. I couldn't believe she did that. All three of our kids are fish!
