A Day at the Lake with the Kids

Last Friday, my friend Darlene and I took the kids out on their boat for the day. We were beyond excited! They all got to knee board and Taylor even tried water skiing! They've been on a boat before but never gotten to ski, knee board, etc. so this was a first for them! I loved watching them do one of my favorite things! I spent a lot of time boating as a kid, so it brought back so many great memories. I got to ski too, which was an added bonus!

Initially, Carter didn't want to get in the lake, as it looked "too dirty". He's kinda irritating funny like that. It's a very clean lake, he's just not used to lake water. All the kids jumped in, except Carter. But, he soon joined them, after I threw him in! :)


He doesn't like swimming without goggles, even in a lake! :)

Taylor tried water skiing for the first time. She got up on her second try, but fell shortly after so I didn't get any pictures of her up. She did awesome and I was so proud of her!

Carter was the bravest of all my kids on the knee board. He was a natural and even tried doing a 360!

...and a wipe out!

It was pretty choppy when it was Lauren's turn to knee board so she didn't try to get up on her knees. She just enjoyed letting the boat pull her around the lake! She was the most cautious of the kids.

Taylor also loved knee boarding...

Carter got to drive the boat which was definitely a highlight for him!

Thanks Darlene! We had a blast!
