Boating w/Kyle and Heidi






















Kyle and Heidi have invited us out boating with them quite a few times this summer but we've always been busy until today!  We met up at their place and got the boat all ready.  I feel like I grew up on Utah Lake and dang, it honestly felt so good to be back in that green, dirty water!  I started off the trip by knee boarding, in memories of boating with Grandpa Ras.  Then we pulled out the wake board.  Nathan did great and is learning quickly.  It was nice to have Kyle and Heidi there giving advice on what to do different and improve.  Kyle was incredible to watch and Heidi was doing some sweet jumps by the end.  I even got up on the wake board!!!  A first for me!  I was so excited that first time that I started yelling and cheering, so much that I fell over...haha,  I quickly got back up and was going again.  I even got back into the wake!  I was thrilled!

Harlow had a good time on the boat.  We'd dip him in that water now and again to cool him off but the water was cold and he let us know that wasn't his favorite thing to do.  He did go swimming with Daddy for a tiny but and calmed down a little.  As it got later Harlow started getting sleepy but we made him a little bed under a shady spot (just like my mom use to do for me) and he took a snoozer.  Towards the end of the trip we wanted to get Harlow out on the tubes. 

Ended the day off with a relaxing picnic dinner out on the patio (Taco Salad) at our place and then watching The Ghost.  It's sure fun to have good friends.
