Day at the Lake




One of our favorite places to be is at the lake. We celebrated Allyn's grandfather's 89th birthday this past Friday at the lake with family. Allyn has always loved to water ski along with anything else daring that he can do in the water. Did I mention that our first date was water skiing, and he proposed to me at the lake?? Maybe Gray got some of his genes, because she was loving all things having to do with the water this weekend. She even asked Allyn to pull her in the tube several times!? We were shocked, seeing as how she used to be so reserved and hesitant to try new things. She LOVED it, and the more bumps the better! You can see that I got the privelage to ride with her....at least I knew Allyn had to behave with the driving (no crazziness in trying to throw me off). Ella loved being daddy's little helper in the boat. She says she wants to try tubing "when she gets a little older." We always joke that when Allyn used to think of being a father (before we had kids) that he always imagined himself driving the boat with the kids. I think his dreams were fulfilled today:)
