Our Summer So Far

Our summer so far has been spent on or in water. We've been spending our Sundays boating at Tappan lake with Grandma and Grandpa Clapper. Sammie loves tubing so much that she could spend the whole day tubing! She's also tried skiing and almost got up on them. Erin loves to boat swim. She could spend all day bobbing around in the water with her life vest on! George and I have been enjoying the jet ski! We even towed Sammie in a tube last weekend. Riding on it backwards so that I could spot was no where near as scary as I thought it would be.
We've taken the jet ski out on a couple of Saturdays by ourselves to both Tappan and West Branch. Although we really enjoyed the beach at West Branch, the water was really choppy.
If we're not at a lake, we're usually in the pool at grandma great's house or Grandma and Grandpa Clapper's house or playing with water balloons at our house!
We are so thankful for the beautiful weather we've been having on the weekends this summer and are looking forward to the rest of our water filled summer!

Oh Nana....

Grandma great's neighbor had bought this water slide for their grandkids. They had it out the other night while we were at family dinner and invited the girls to join them. They really enjoyed it and I was teasing nana telling her she needs to up her game!

The Jet Ski Saga

Take One: A 1995 SeaDoo HX. Once we had this ski in the water, we quickly realized that although it was fun to ride, it was not the jet ski for us! It only held one person and was a little tippy in low speeds.

Take Two: A 1996 Yamaha Wave Venture 1100. This is the perfect jet ski for us! It can hold all 4 of us and is able to tow a tube or skiier. We have been having a blast riding it!

Hanging Out Around the House

Erin had tried on Sammie's old glasses for fun! Sugar was in her usual postition whenever someone is laying on the couch with her!
