We had a great time at the lake over the long holiday. I am so thankful the weather cooperated this time too! It was sunny and beautiful the whole time....couldn't have been more perfect:) We spent two days out on the water and it was wonderful. The water temperature was around 86 degrees and felt great. We got in some good tubing, swimming, laying out, and of course, eating. Silas did a little fishing and four wheeler riding as well. It is hard to take pictures while you are busy having so much fun, but I managed to get a few in over the trip!
Tyson fits in his life jacket so well and really likes it. He had fun floating around in his float, and just lounging on his back in his life jacket too. I am so glad he loves the water. He took a nap each day on the boat when we would just ride around for a while. The lull of the waves and the engine noise put him right out every time! He thinks he is the captain of the boat, and had fun "driving" with dad, and pushing the button for the horn:) Too cute.
I love this picture! We had the boat docked and he climbed out into our tube and went fishing along the shore! It looks so funny, like his legs are missing! My other favorite part is that he is fishing with a tiny little Barbie fishing pole:) He managed to catch several little fish with that thing and no bait! He sure had a good time:)
My boys. Tyson got his first ride on a 4 wheeler this weekend and loved it. That kid is an adrenaline junkie:) He loves all the big boy toys and does not seem too scared of anything so far. He is so cute riding around with the wind blowing his hair straight up on his head. We are so thankful to have such good friends that let us come up and stay on the lake. We are getting much more use out of the boat as a result! We are looking forward to heading back out this fall once the leaves start changing on the trees and the weather cools off. It will be nice to just ride around on the water and relax. We had a great trip, but were all exhausted once we got back. Playing hard really takes a lot out of you! Silas and I feel like we are getting too old to be tearing it up out there on the tube, but we just can't resist. It's great while you are out there, until you can't move your arms the next day!

Too old? Please! That is hilarious that Silas caught stuff with that Barbie pole, maybe we can borrow it sometime...
You are incredibly lucky you have a child that will wear a life jacket...I am completely jealous.
Looks like you all had a great time and what a perfect way to end summer :)
