Lake Time




We got to hit the lake twice in July, the kids were in heaven. They got to play in the sand, ride on boats, sea doos -- and best of all play with cousins, aunts and uncles.

We went to my sister Tiffany's new lake house -- It was gorgeous and so much fun. Aunt Nat and Uncle Greg were in town with Ryan and their Honda Aqua Tracks. Tiffany got both of my kids to try new things on the lake -- tubing behind the boat, jumping on a water trampoline and riding Sea Doos. Dylan and Ella bounce here with their cousin Peyton. They would all jump and try to bounce each other in the water.
Ella loved cruising in the canoe with cousin Peyton.
Ella, Ryan and Peyton cool off in the dog water pool.
I was a bit worried in the beginning since Ella was pouty and a bit afraid of trying new things.But we gradually go her on everything and now she is hooked. She got on the tube behind the boat and especially loves going out with Aunt Nat on her Aqua Tracks cruiser. She only lets Aunt Nat drive her around the lake.The day ended with all of us beat -- I got to cuddle with baby Ryan after a day of exhausting boating.At the end of the week, Nat and Greg invited us to another lake with all their extended family. Ella sits on the Aqua Track with Ryan.Eric got to join us for the lake fun. We could not get Dylan or Eric off the Aqua Tracks. They were addicted! Dylan wanted to go as fast as he could and when we tried to stop and chat in the middle of the lake, he hit the gas. In these photos, they kids were the last to leave the lake -- and still don't want to go!
