Memorial Day at the lake

The girls made their first trip to the lake on Memorial Day and the weekend was full of entertainment (primarily at the expense of yours truly and Uncle Brandy). We put the Sea Doo's in the water for the first time and very quickly realized we failed to put the plugs in. As soon as we had one up and running we started wake boarding. Shortly thereafter, our ski rope handle broke in half, we rushed to buy a new one which was used for a good 15 minutes before it was sucked into the prop. Brandon had to swim the Sea Doo back to the landing to be taken out of the water for the third time. The good news is our family and all the neighbors had some good laughs and by day two we had both out on the water. We had a great time with Pop, Honey, Brandon, Emily Rose, and Kristin.

But I am sure you are most concerned with what is happening with Tyler and Harper. Their laughs are so much more pronounced now, so the highlight of my day is to see how much I can make them laugh - it is so cute. They are almost 6 months old and enjoy all their outdoor toys - everything from their shade tent to the new frog pool - the girls are prepared for fun in the sun. The newest experience was swinging in the hammock. They liked it so much we are considering one for home. We are in the process of updating the lake house in anticipation of many more family weekends to come. I remember all the fun I had growing up spending time on the water and can't wait to teach the girls to ski, tube, wakeboard, etc...I guess we better start with the swim lessons first!
