Boating

When Beads and Moose were up here a couple of weeks ago, a bunch of us went boating at Palisades Lake. It hadn't been six weeks since Micah's birth yet, so I decided to forego waterskiing and tubing until the next time we go. I spent most of the day on the beach, which was fine by me, but I did drive the boat for Ben while he wakeboarded one time. I'm really bad at driving the boat; poor Ben. He didn't get a very good wakeboarding experience. This is Greg, Moose's brother:


Micah:


My dad, literally holding down the fort (it was quite breezy that day):


The beach was really muddy, and Beads fell in it while unloading stuff from the boat to the shore:


Sadie:

Ben, making a sandwich:

Dylan went looking for cool rocks, and he brought this one back. He called it a "kidney stone," which made us giggle. Our family has been plagued with kidney stones this past year:

Beads and Moose:

On our way home, we stopped in Swan Valley for some square ice cream. They have these square ice cream scoopers at this gas station, and people get a kick out of it - they get, literally, thousands of visitors every year at this gas station. Here are Beads and Sadie:

Dylan fell asleep on our way home:


And here is Sadie, trying to pretend that she's asleep:

    I love boating! I probably haven't been boating since the last time I went with Ben and Brandon on their boat! YIKES that was years ago.
