Float my Boat. . .

Today at the Lake was our big boating day! Bear lake weather can be extremely unpredictable at times so when it is sunny you need to be ready in a second to go!

We were hurrying to get lathered up with sunblock and change into our kini's when Mandi, the littlest of us, started to complain. SHE HATES SUNBLOCK :( so we tried to make it fun . . .



Who knows if she thought it was funny. . . or just that we have issues :). . .

Eddie was feeling under the weather so grandma was rocking him and singing him. I know right?!?! Who gets THAT kind of treatment! Those poochies are sooo spoiled!

At the Good ol' Bear Lake harbor launchin' the boat!

We were all SO tickled that the weather was so nice! Courty catchin some rays!

Eddie was loving the sun too. . . .

. . . But little Bentley was not!

She was making us laugh so hard!!! She kept finding these little crevaces to squeeze into to try to get warm.

She finally settled between my leg and the boat seat!

Brian wakeboarding! He is really good at it and these pictures of mine do not do his talent justice at ALL!!!

We were a little weary to get in the water too bc it is a tad chilly, but my dad knows that the easiest way is to just jump in!

Isn't he such a studly father?!?!? :)

Elisha getting ready to "take the plunge!"

I love jenessa's face here! She really is such a character and I am so glad she was able to come!

We also have this tradition that the person holding the flag is called the flag fag. I think we invented this before we even all knew what that word meant! It is not meant in any other way, or to be disrespectful, But it has stuck, nonetheless.

There are three types of flag fag. . .

1. The "Macho" and serious face!

2. The "Excited to be at bear lake" face!

3. And the OVERLY EXCITED AND ENTHUSIASTIC face!

She is the one that makes you WANT to hold the flag because it looks so fabulous, doesn't it?!!

Yes, tubing is a sport :)

Isn't this a cute picture? Elisha, Bentley, Brian, Eddie, and Jenessa!

Court and Lee are showing that they are strong enough to survive Uncle Stevie's ride of doom!

The water was nice, but after a long day of water, it was time to come in for some sun worship :)

The dogs are thinking if you drop me I will bite your butt!!!

Out of all that there is to do up at bear lake my favorite thing is to just lay out! The girls were really excited to get a tan!

Tada! Are we tan yet?

And I know it's funny but I love the first sunburn of the season. It just feels SO good to me! This burn on my chest though was NOT on purpose! I still feel it!

YAY! This fourth was incredibly awesome! I hope yours was great as well!

Much love and sunshine!

Linds!
