Today we took our new boat for a spin! We got ready nice and early and were out on the lake before lunch. It was perfect because there was hardly anyone there and we had the lake practically to ourselves.
Mr. Stannix has been anticipating this day for a few weeks now and was all smiles as he drove us all over the lake!
The kids are still pretty new to this whole boating thing and took a little bit of convincing to get onto the tube. They trust their Daddy though and knew he would take it slow.
They ended up having a lot of fun! Though I think our cautious Camilla will take a few more runs to warm up to it.
Ollie enjoyed snuggling up next to whoever he could and feeling the wind in his hair. Oh, and cheetos!
Mike and I were able to go on a baby ride with Oliver. He wasn't sure what to think about the whole thing but I think he enjoyed himself. I was just glad we were going slow. Ha!
Mr. Stannix tested out our new water skis and got up on his first try! He tried to drop a ski on his first run (always shooting for the stars this guy) and just about made it before an epic wipe-out. On his second go he was able to get outside the wake and enjoy a nice ride.
On our way back to shore Grampa and Hyrum went for a spin. I think out of everybody, Hyrum loves the tube the most! He was super eager to go for another ride and frequently gave us the thumbs up sign to go faster. Time flew by so quickly and before we knew it we had spent a good six hours on the water. Mr. Stannix is super happy with his purchase! It's such a fun investment and something that will bring our family joy for years to come.
