Day at the Lake

Yesterday was a warm and windy day, but we went out to the "lake" anyway. (It's really more of a large dam.) B loves anything that has to do with swimming or water activities. D also got to have some fun tubing and skiing. I, however, decided to stay on the shore. Next year I will be able to participate in the fun.

B started out by just hanging out in the tube by the boat ramp. There isn't a dock or a beach so she couldn't really stand or swim in the water. She was disappointed, but still enjoyed the tube.

As the day went on and she saw Daddy and our friends riding in the tube, she decided she wanted to be pulled in the tube as well. Someone rode with her in the tube, but it was really hard for the adult to hang on with B in there.

B then decided she wanted to try riding in the tube by herself. She was wearing a life jacket and they were only going 3-5 mph. She absolutely loved it and had to do it several more times. She probably could have spent the rest of the day riding in the tube. We thought it was fun to see her pigtails flying back in the wind. B and Daddy also rode on the jet ski together a couple of times.

We were all a little sunburned (despite the sunscreen) and tired when we got home. It was good to get out and do something out of the ordinary.
