Mom and Dad B wanted to take their boat out one last time this season. They opted to come over to Lake Monroe, which is always a great option in our opinion. We joined them Saturday and then again on Sunday afternoon with our friends the Russells. The high temp for both days was somewhere near 70, but the sun was shining so we put on our sweatshirts and braved the wind. It wasn't too bad on Saturday, but Sunday was much colder when the sun went behind the clouds. I did not opt to water ski, but Rob wakeboarded both days and Bethany and Andrew both took a turn waterskiing on Sunday. They were very brave! The water was actually warmer than the air they said, but I was not convinced. There were barely any other boats on the water, but we didn't see anyone else skiing!
Liam was content to eat snacks as he usually does. Someone asked him at church how the boat ride was and all he talked about was eating rice cakes. I think he thinks the boat is a fount of snacks, but hey, if it keeps him happy, I'm cool with that!
The one bummer was dad broke his thumb while unhooking the boat from the trailer. It swelled up huge and they went for x-rays in the evening to confirm it was in fact broken. Poor dad always seems to have something happen to him while we are on vacation!
In between snacks he posed for a picture.
Bethany and I with our boys. Caleb was not convinced the life jacket was a good idea!
Family pic that of course involves snacks.
Liam loves to help Boppy drive the boat.
This is how Liam and I spent most of Sunday!
What a stud. He loves to drive the boat.
A very brave Rob!
Saturday afternoon Rob and his dad golfed and we took Liam to the FREEZING pool. Mimi got in the pool with Liam and I sat on the edge. I'm not that great of a mom really. :)
Brave Bethany skiing on Sunday.
Besides snacks, Liam loves to watch other boats going "fast." He kept telling Boppy to go faster!
Before the boat is even in the water, he was dipping into the snacks.
Liam + Caleb = life jacket buddies
