Summer Fun!

Last night, Shawn and Deetra invited us to go out on their boat, and with the temps around here lately, we were all too happy to oblige! I had worked the Gaming convention downtown all afternoon, so everyone was just waiting for me to get home. But when I did finally get home, I was STARVING...and since no one else had eaten yet either, we made the executive decision to order pizza and eat at their house before hitting the lake. Boy, I don't know if pizza ever tasted so good!

Anyway, we finally got out on the lake, cruised around a bit, and then headed to the swimming cove so the kids could swim. They had a great time, let me tell you! They swam round and round the boat, jumped off the deck, and had Barry throwing them from the back. You'd think they'd be worn out, but nooooooo. So we decided to head out and let the kiddos tube and hopefully ski. Much to our surprise, Kendall said she'd try the skiis. And she didn't back out either...not even for one little second. And on her second try, she popped right up! We were so proud of her!After she tried a few more times, it was time to let Shea and Noah do some tubing. This was Noah's first time in the tube, and while he was eager as soon as Shea said she'd go with him (he didn't want to go by himself), he didn't last too long. He decided he'd rather ride in the boat and watch everyone else. Kendall rode the tube for a little while, and then the big boys got in the water for some knee-boarding and wake-boarding. The kids were totally mesmerized by Shawn's tricks! And all the while, I got to hold the adorable Will...We had so much fun...and the kids did great! Many thanks to the Huntingtons for a fun evening!!
