It's officially summer!

 These pictures are all out of order, but you get the idea...we spent yesterday on the lake and it was heaven for our family. We only went out once last year because I was pregnant with Grant and the idea of sitting in the hot sun riding around on a bumpy boat was torture. But now I'm ready to get back to living at the lake for the summer. Blake grew up spending his summers at the lake and I love that we are starting that same tradition with out kids. It's a little tricky with the baby and dealing with nap times, but as long as we are flexible and bring plenty of food everyone leaves with a smile at the end of the day.


 After a long hiatus from boarding, I was still able to get up! Today, after a few crashes my body is reminding me that I am no longer young. I ache and have sore muscles that I didn't even know I had.

 Mr. G's first time on the lake!

 This was the morning before the lake. Sometimes Blake and I just can't get over how cute Grant is. Yep, he's spoiled and he'll always be our baby.
 The biggest excitement yesterday was Brooke getting up on her waterski! We have been trying for 3 summers to get Brooke to ski. We've bribed her with Oreo's in past years, but she was never able to get over her fear. This summer she did it! I am so proud of her. I don't care if she becomes a master water skier, but I am so happy she was able to overcome this fear she had. She did and now knows that it wasn't that scary.
 Look at her scared face before the boat took off...

 And now she's all smiles!
