We finally bought our family a boat this year. We have loved most every moment using it and have created many good and "interesting" memories with our family.
The kids pretty must mastered the tube this summer. They know all the signals and they each have a preference on how fast the boat goes and whether or not we go side to sidee or do figure eights. Hayden is definitely fearless when it comes to the tube. This tube fits 4 people, one of which kneels on the back. Hayden loves to do this and hang his body off the edge. It has spooked us a few times when we haven't been able to see him.
Here's Dave in his usual position, behind the wheel.
We love to anchor the boat, eat lunch and then let the kids (and sometimes the adults) jump off the platform and swim. Good times!
My parents came with us a number of times. It was fun listening to my mom laugh from the tube becuase she was having so much fun. The picture below shows where we like to anchor when on the Columbia River to let the kids out for some sand/running/playing in the water time.
One of my favorite things to do on the boat was to sit and soak up the sun while listening to music. Oh so relaxing!
Hayden was our brave child this year who learned to knee board. He was able to get up pretty quickly with a high success rate. So proud of him!
