First Boat Trip 2009

We made our first lake trip!  Monday, for family home evening, we had an outing to the lake.  The boat did great, the suburban worked fabulous, and the family had lots of fun.  We attempted fishing for the first time (with no success), we took bread to feed the ducks (and never got any ducks close enough to eat the bread we threw), and we enjoyed good times riding around.  Sterling was not fond of the life jacket, but LOVED the anchor down and playing on the boat.  It was a fantabulous time!

Calvin lost his tooth earlier in the day.

Kimball was willing to smile for the camera!

Bridget calling the ducks…Sterling pinching the cover snap.

Logan and Bridget climbing.

The water was too cold to swim…I was sure someone would slip in…but with all the climbing around nobody fell in!  The kids did manage to get their hands or feet wet off the back of the boat.

Kimball fishing.  The kids each got a turn to fish.

Ammon took Kimball, Calvin, Logan and Bridget fishing again on Saturday.  They tried fishing at the dock, again no success (that is ok by me) but lots of fun and an early start to Saturday morning.  They were gone one hour and came home for breakfast and a Primary activity.  It was a busy day.
