Fireworks on the Lake

Friday afternoon late, we headed to the lake with Ryan's brother Kyle and our sister-in-law Miah. It was so much fun! Evening is my favorite time to be on the lake. It is so calm and peaceful, but yet still warm enough to enjoy the water! We started out with swimming!

Our little bobber---with a lifejacket and ring, she just sits on top of the water! So funny!

This is Kyle on the new tube. It is a "real" tube, like lay down and hold on for dear life, not just a sit in it and enjoy the ride kind of tube. He rode it twice and then Ryan rode. I drove Ryan so I don't have a picture of him on it. That was my first time to drive someone in a real tube and try to throw him off. I think I did ok for my first time!

When we were driving to our spot for fireworks, Lindsey was helping hold the tube. She would not let go. So sweet. She looked uncomfortable, so Ryan and I both told her several times she didn't have to hold it, but she insisted.

Courtney enjoying being little...sorry for the naked picture, but I had to show you these tan lines. Really this picture doesn't even do that justice! She is a BROWN BUNNY and wears sun screen everytime we are at the pool or on the boat!

Ryan grilled burgers for us on the boat! That was his father's day present last year and it has proven to be one of the best! It is very rare for us to go on the boat and not grill! We love it!

The girls eating dinner at dusk, such a pretty time to be on the water!

This seriously might be one of the only pictures of me in our 2 years on the boat! Usually I'm the one behind the camera, usually in a swimsuit, thus NOT in pictures!! Ha! I saw this and thought "OMG I look so big" but I guess that comes with the territory!

This is Courtney on the drive in from the fireworks to our ramp/car. I had to use the flash to get it because it was SO dark, but she was out! Lindsey had been too. It is a good 20-30 min. boat ride from where we watch them back to where we launch. It was good that they went to sleep.

We had a great time. We went to my parents' house after we got loaded and dropped Kyle and Miah off. It was so late and we were so tired! We had big plans to go on the boat on Sat but the rain came and we started driving home. We literally followed the storm home. It was awful! The rain was so hard and so strong that Ryan had to drive 30 at times on the interstate! Thankfully God kept us safe and we made it home for naptime and got to have an enjoyable day.
