The Lake

Over the weekend we were invited to what we thought was our friends house but it turned out to be the wrong destination. We were supposed to meet them at a lake. Yes, low and behold, Indio has a beautiful man made lake. The weather was hot but barely noticable with a huge body of water and a fast boat to ride on. I can't even explain the amount of fun that was had. Watching the kids excitement and playing all day in the water was awesome. Lately, all they need is each other and they're pretty content.
Trying wakeboarding only once before, a week prior, this was our second time out and I was on a mission. I convinced Mark to go first because the butterflies were a little much in my stomach. After getting up on his second attempt I couldn't wait until it was my turn. To everyones suprise I got up on my first try and my second and my third, you get the picture. It was a blast and completely addiciting. I am still having trouble moving from shocking my poor muscles but I hope I can do it again one day.



Peyton being our timid one was happy holding on being close to mom and dad but Drew got right into it and even got to drive the boat.

Reaching in to check the temp. He loved the boat.








Taking a dip.

Feeding Drew. I love that he likes to help take care of her.

One of my favorite parts of the day was when Peyton got home and made a thank you card. He couldn't wait for me to give it to our hosts. I love that about him.
