Family fun at the Lake

So this weekend was our annual lake weekend with the Denner's (Chris, Katie, Alex and Dalton, Katie is my cousin). We have I think been able to have them down to our lakehouse pretty much every summer since we got our lakehouse....I think. The kids have a good time as do the adults with getting caught up and of course, swimming, tubing, and riding the jet ski.

This year the kids entertained us with their flips off the tube/dock.

Blake (the youngest of the group) couldn't be out done and mastered his flip off the dock. I know it looks as if he is going to land on his head but he actually gets around and ends up on his back.
The kids "built" a spring board I guess, by flipping the big tube over on the dock. Here's Dalton getting some air.Brett and one of his many flips.
Alex and her flip.Brett getting some air with his "hand spring".

Love the look on Dalton's face....."I'm flying"!!
Brett again.
Alex and her cannon ball.
And after all that swimming you get really really tired......Katie and Blake crashed out.
This is totally random but as we drove upto the lake Friday night we came across this tractor and bailer sitting in a field just north of Strong City. Looks like things got a little hot.....not one strip of rubber was left on the tractor or bailer wheels. Can only imagine how hot that fire had to have been. It looked as if the fire was caught fairly quickly as there wasn't too much pasture burned but the tractor and bailer were definately a loss.
This week we will be getting ready for our summer vacation. We are headed to San Diego early Saturday morning. We will be staying at a resort with beach access right out our back door, we plan to go to the Zoo, Sea World and the USS Midway. The boys are excited about going on another plane ride and mom and dad are looking forward to nicer temperatures.
