The forecast was 70 - 72 degrees with a slight chance of rain. Taylor and I convinced ourselves that it would be too cold to swim in the lake, but the water was 82 degrees! Steve and Emily brought our swimsuits, about 3 hours in. We only had an hour to tube, but we had a lot of fun with our family all day. While everyone else swam, we fished on the other side of the boat.
Our boat had a top deck, where we could sit, as long as the boat wasn't moving.
I don't think either of the boys had watched anyone tube before, so they were really tickled to watch Anthony behind the boat.
Dan may think computers are his calling, but based on this smile and enthusiasm behind the wheel of a boat, I think he was born to be Captain Dan.
We didn't put a hook on Anna Belle's fishing pole, which allowed both the kids to practice casting the line. Brady showed remarkable improvement, until he threw Anna Belle's pole in the lake.
I was really, really impressed with how well both of the kids tubed. Brady was screaming for us to go faster. You can see how we actually caught some air.
Anna Belle's shoulders were lower than her tummy, in order to allow her to grab the handles. Her little head bobbed all over the place, but she loved it.
