One of our favorite things...

We've been trying to go boating almost every night for two weeks, but the weather hasn't worked in our favor. We finally got to go out on my parents boat last night!This was Colby's first trip out on the boat. He actually did better than we expected. Babies never like to wear lifejackets, and he was no different, but it's a must and he eventually got use to it. We even got a few smiles out of him later in the day!
Kyle and his cousin Lainie had a ball together. Our two peas in a pod stayed up front of the bow for most of the day. They laughed their heads off and loved throwing goldfish crackers into the lake to watch them 'swim' away.
Our cute little family!

Both Scott and I were able to get up on the wake-surf board on our first tries. (Which after taking a year off, and me having a baby, was something to celebrate!) We both were able to surf with no handle for a while too. SO MUCH FUN! It's totally my new favorite boating activity.
These last three pictures are purely for your viewing pleasure! Below is my big brother, Tom, catching some wicked BIG AIR on the wake board. He is crazy talented and athletic. So much fun to watch. In the last photo he is throwing a HUGE back-flip. SWEET!The evening was great! Mountain boating is a lot different from Lake Powell boating, but fun nonetheless. (It took me about 8 hours to thaw out...I was FREEZING.) We can't wait until next year.
