MORE Summer Fun

Summer is in full swing. Actually, it's coming to an end soon for the bigger kids. Around here, school starts in the next few weeks. We are trying to stay cool since it's been so stinkin hot. We either stay inside and go CRAZY, or swim!
Friday night, the Jacobs took us out on their boat. My kids were on cloud 9. Emma had been on the boat last summer, but she doesn't remember. She was all about it! Connell surfed at the end of last summer with Mr. Chad, and he was definitely ready to do that again. At the end of the weekend, Emma included "boat time" in her bedtime prayers. She even declared that Mr. Chad is her friend, which is so cute, because she has been very timid and standoffish with him for the last year.

managed to capture this sweet moment while we waiting for the boat

Emma's first time tubing! She is so brave!

We finished out the weekend swimming next door. The kids are loving the water this summer, and I am loving that it keeps them happy!

This posted out of order and I am too lazy to fix it. Isn't she a doll baby??? :)
