Our first day on the new boat!

We got to take the boat out for the first time this weekend, and it was great! All of the boys had a great time. Mitch, Jack, and Alex had a blast jumping in the lake from the boat, and Jake crawled/scooted all over the boat. He even got in the lake for a little while. Gary is so exited to finally have a boat...he's been working on it for a long time! :)

We went out for a few hours on Saturday afternoon with the whole crew. Then Sunday, Mimi kept Jake for us while we spent the whole day on the lake. What would we do without Mimi? We met our friends Jeff, Erin, and Megan (the ones we went out with a few weeks ago) out on the lake, and tied up to them. We had a nice relaxing day out with family and friends.

Mitch would not be outdone by his older brothers. Every time they jumped, he jumped. He even jumped off of the "platform" on the back of the boat into the lake, which is around 4 feet high! Then he rode the Jet Ski with Jack, and on Sunday he got on the tube with Jack! He sure has turned into a little daredevil this summer. That's quite a change from a year ago!

Here are some pictures from Saturday. (I didn't think to get the camera out on Sunday.)

This is them putting the boat in for the first time!
Jake and "Daddy" chillin'
This is what Jake did while the others boys swam and jumped!
This is Jake's first time in the lake
This isn't a very good picture, but it is all of my guys playing in the lake together. I'm sure there will be plenty more opportunities for better pics, but this is all I've got for now.

I just realized that most of my pictures are of Jake...I'll do better next time...I was a little exited about capturing his first day on the lake! ;)
