Utah July 2008 Part 4 - Boating on Utah Lake

We were lucky enough to get to go boating with my sister Heather, her husband Bruce, and their three cute kids while we were in Utah. We headed to Utah lake and we had a great time. The water is far from beautiful, but the kids didn't seem to mind much.
Nora was excited and ready to go. She loved being on the boat...especially the snacks.
Max liked helping uncle Bruce drive. He's lookin' pretty serious about it here!
Jack was just happy...as usual. This kid is always such a pleasure to be around.
And here's my sunshine girl Ella. Having fun as usual. This girl just loves to have fun. That smile can light up your day!
Daddy (Paul) tried his hand at wake surfing. He did really well. Sorry I don't have a good picture of him once he let the rope go. It is so cool how close to the boat they are. I may have to try that someday!!
Ella, Jake, and Sarah on the tube. That's my kind of tube riding. I grew up with what we called "The Death Tube." It's so fun to watch the kids faces on this thing.
Jack, Max, and Sam had a great time too...can you tell?!

Nora didn't want to miss out on the fun, so I got out there with her. We were gentle...don't worry! It was fun though and she didn't want it to stop!Here is Max...summing up the whole day perfectly!

We need to get us a wakeboard. That does sound fun.

Just noticed that I can totally see our church steeple in the background of the tube picture. Too funny.
