A Day on the Lake

As I previously mentioned, the three of us went boating on Lake Monroe with my parents, my sister, Rebecca, and her husband, Kyhle.  It was a perfect weather day, not too hot, and cloudy, so we weren't blinded by the sun.  We rented a nice motor boat and also a jet ski.  It was David's first time going boating, so I was pretty excited for him, and knew he'd love it. 
Before we took off flying through the water with wind-swept hair!

Eli put up a fuss when we put him in his life jacket, but once the boat started moving, he entered a zone--quiet with his eyes closed.  He was very relaxed and slept much of the time on Grandma's lap.



David had a hard time getting up on the tube at first, but once he got going he was a natural!





Awake and happy



Loved that jet ski!



It was a great trip, and a fun way to spend my birthday.  Thanks, Mom and Dad!
