Elsie's 1st Lake Trip!!

We finally made it to the lake for the first time this season! Josh and I have been dying to go! It wasn't super warm, but it was warm enough for us! Our lake trip wasn't very long. We had barely launched the boat (Cole's boat, of course) and it stopped running. :( Cole quickly realized that the impeller had been ruined (boo-hoo)...boats don't run without the impeller. Josh went and got the truck and the 2 other guys tried swimming the boat back to the dock (very entertaining for the rest of us on the boat). Their attempt to swim us back, was more like anchoring us in the center, due to the wind. Thank goodness for a boat that came to the rescue and towed us back to the dock. We managed to get in about 1/2 hour of good sun. Maybe next week we will have a successful trip! I was looking forward to some serious wakeboarding! :)

As cute as her life jacket is, she didn't love it... a little tight maybe.

Don't worry, I have been going to the gym, I just can't kick my Cherry Coke addiction!

The attempt to swim the boat back to shore - thanks guys!!!
