Just Hanging Out At the Lake

We have just been hanging out at the lake for the past couple of days.  It has been so much fun boating, jet skiing, floating, and just sitting by the lake reading.  The weather has been so nice (on the news, you would think it was a major heatwave rolling through, but these people don't know what a heatwave is).  The humidity hasn't been horrible, so it has been almost perfect.

I didn't take too many pictures because really we have been doing the same things.

Ethan finally got his boating license and was able to take out the jet skis.  He had such a blast.  He would go out into the open lake and go as fast as he could and do donuts in the water.  The smile on his face was priceless. I went out with him once and all I kept hearing was, "go faster mom!"  I was fine going at my own speed and there was no way I was going to keep up with him.   Unfortunately he had to head back to AZ because he couldn't get any time off of work.  He already told us he wants to come back before the summer is over to do it again.

Stan did a lot of jet skiing.  I think he was gone for about an hour and a half today exploring this huge lake.  

One of the best parts of the past couple of days has been hanging out with my aunt, uncle, cousins, and their kids.  They are fun to be around and it's nice visiting.  

Tomorrow we are going to hit one of Stan's bucket list items...to visit Mayberry.  We are going to Mt. Airy and then exploring the area around there.  I'll definitely have more photos.
