Lastnight

Epic boat ride!  We went out right after JL's last meeting and had a total blast out on the lake!  The weather was so nice - warm and not windy!  That's a miracle, considering the wind has been blowing around here since ... well ... January!

The kids started out with a swim.  The water was a little chilly for me and E, but the boys jumped right in - even Wyatt! - and had a great time!


Woo Hoo!!

After they burned a little energy splashing and swimming around, James and Daddy took their first surf ride of the season.  Wow!  They both did great!  With me not able to surf this season (yes, I am crying) JL was able to put the weight on the side of the boat that works better for him.  He had no trouble riding around.  And James - it was like he never had an off-season!  He had the longest turn he's ever had!  I had to turn the boat twice to keep them going around the lake!  James just had a big, fat smile on his face the entire time!

1st Surf of the Season!

Isabel lookin' mighty adorable

Wyatt watching James.  These two are peas in a pod!

We ended the night with JL on the wakeskate.  With the lack of wind, he had the best ride he's ever had on that thing.  The water was like glass (and that isn't common around here!) and I could hear him whoopin' and hollerin' out there.  He had a GREAT time!
