We LOVE the boat. We look forward to the summer all year long mostly because we love being on the boat. Our kids have learned to love it too and they have all had a great year learning new things. It is such a fun family thing and we love spending time together! Here are some of the highlights of the summer!
Josh and I made a point to get all the kids on the water somehow this summer. We figured out that kneeboarding is a great learning tool. So we got Liev and Keen out there and onto the kneeboard with me hanging off the back while the boat pulls us slowly. They were both a little nervous but as the summer has gone on, they both love it now. It is a great way for them to learn to be away from the boat but still feel close enough to the water that it's not scary. So fun for them!
In July we had a family week on the lake. Josh took off 3 days of work and we stayed at the cabin and boated for five days straight. It was a blast! We had a ton of fun with the kids and they all got lots of time on the water. Rease has gotten really good at her double skis and can get up on her own. And Rhen decided this year that she wants to kneeboard by herself. They both did awesome! We are going to continue this tradition of a week on the lake every year!
Liev named himself the rope boy and loves to pull the rope in when someone is done.
I'm not even sure what to say about this picture. Rhen thinks she can pee off the side of the boat like the boys.
Kneeboard wars have become a favorite of everyone and we got a new tube this year that the kids love!
And a day on the lake is only complete with a burger and shake from In-N-Out. It's our thing and the kids don't let us go home before we've stopped. We have had such a fun time this year on the boat!
