Our AMAZINGLY AWESOME friends offered to take us out for a ride the other day!! Hooray!
We loaded up, brought our own life life jackets, food, water and excitement to last a good afternoon. This would add another great moment to our summer of 2009! To have a day out on the lake, chilling with our friends and relaxing from our normal day activities. Rare opportunity and I had to snatch it!
Our little Miss Shae is growing up. 2 years ago when we had last been on the boat with her, she would roll herself up in a little ball and cover herself with a hat or towel almost the entire duration of the boat being on the water. Now that Miss Shae is 5, she's growing up and loved every moment of the open water. She was prancing and singing around the boat and had a bust buddy to tag along with her. Shae loves to joke around now with Alpine and enjoys his little adventures from a boys point of view.
T on the other hand, did not get as much freedom as the other two. He was such a good baby and slept for most of the trip.Brian was very excited to get his old wake board out and hit the wake again. His spirits were so high this afternoon, this is one of Brian's playgrounds. He loves to wakeboard. I am always cautioning him to have a great time out there, but to remember that he is not as young as he once was and don't break or tear anything. If he did, I would have to take him in and have him put down.

As Shayn was coming back to the boat, Kristen and I are chatting away and then we hear screaming and grunting and groaning like somone was in labor. It was Shayn! Greg and Brian were helping Shayn deliver twins, his big feet in Brian's small boots.
Time of delivery 12:58 pm. Both babies were healthy and happy and all appendiges were still attached. Shayn, you never named the poor babies, but I am proud you didn't ask for an epideral.
Shae and Alpine loved hanging off the back of the boat with Brian. They would slowly be dipped into the water and would scream with glee of the coldness.
They were also brave enough to join Brian in some tubing action. Notice Alpine has a life jacket and the arm floaties. This kid was not going to sink even if we tried. All 3 loved every minute of the ride. The reason of the sad faces in the picture below was because we told them the ride was over and we were pulling them in.

What a fantastic post! Hee hee! Love the Shayn in labor part - that seriously was funny. We had such a great time. And I'm serious about Powell. We'll have to figure out the logistics of it.
That looks like a LOT of fun. Your husband is really good! And I love the last picture of Shae asleep...I love long summer days in the water, because the kids always seem to sleep so much better. Don't you think?
Wow!! What a fun day! You guys are definitely in your element on the boat.
What fun! I love the boat, and miss Lake Powell like CRAZY!
How was Utah Lake? I have never been there...
Oh that looked like so much fun! Shae looked so cute, but I bet she had a riot. I loved the part about putting Brian down, haven't laughed that hard in a long time.
so fun! i miss boating as well. we haven't been for about 4 yrs. painful isn't it.
I am impressed! That looks like a lot of fun. Now if only boats didn't scare the begeebers out of me...
I also forgot to mention that my husband is totally hot in the rooster tail photo. Let's go boating again. ;)
