Cool, Cool Water

We're so grateful to our friends who are our gracious hosts at the lake. Sure, the Rhodes pool is great. But the freedom of the open waters, with Captain Windshadow (known to some of you as Landon) at the helm...now THAT's good living. We've always loved the Mills, but when I came upon the little clan dancing in the driveway to Big Audio Dynamite? Well, that's when I knew we were a match made in heaven.

Captain Windshow navigates this dangerous canal to take us to the big lake. This is where the famous calling of the turtles occurs.


After surviving the canal, it's full throttle (does a pontoon boat have full throttle? is that even the right term?) across the lake, with the wind in our hair.


Once on board, we get down to the serious business: that of eating. Here, Walt ponders the nutritional benefits of Animal Crackers. Few, my boy, few.


Mer "driving."


Meredith was all over the place in her pink boat. Anyplace her Daddy would drag her, at least.


Then it's back to shore for the next important activity of the day. Eating. Henry is poised for action.


Sunset.

Probably the first pic of me dancing that I'm not embarrased by! Thanks for all the great pics - it was an awesome wkd.

Ok. so even when she's in the pink "boat" she does have her life jacket on, right?

I'm not going to sign my name - it's not necessary - when you're the mom who would only take her children to swimming lessons where she DIDN"T have to watch.
