Lake Almanor 2013 (Part 2 - Out on the Water)

There's something about being towed behind a boat that just thrills a kid - old and young.

Cameron, Landon, and Hayden waiting for the fun to begin.

 Cameron and Landon could have towed around on the tubes all day. 

 Allison and Jayden did a whole lot of screaming.  I guess they were having fun, even if Leon WAS a super, crazy driver.  I guess that's part of the fun - not sure.

 All the kids had to get in on the action together.

 This picture was originally taken for the view behind us, but it also proves that I WAS there.

 Dallin looks forward to kneeboarding every year and had no trouble getting the knack of it again.

 Jayden didn't stay up as long as Dallin, but I think that's because he was trying to hot dog it too much.

 Cameron was just happy to get up after swallowing half of the lake trying to get up.  He had to be reminded to let go of the rope once he fell off rather than being dragged.  Gulp.

 Landon was a little apprehensive about knee boarding, but once he got up, he was all smiles.

 The Jet Skis were nearly always in use.

 Dallin was quite stoked to be 16 this year and able to drive one on his own.  He was actually quite gutsy on the thing, much to my dismay.

 Okay - so this picture is also just to prove that I was there, AND that I can actually DO something.  It may not be pretty, but it's "something" - right?
