End of summer fun at the ozarks.

Every year near the end of the summer we spend about 5 days at the Lake of the Ozarks with Bob's parents at their condo. We love all the time we get to relax, get out on the lake and just spend quality time together. This year was especially important because shortly after getting back from our fun lake trip, Addison was starting kindergarten. We took in as much fun as we could and had a great time.
Here is a pic of me and Lucas on one of the beaches when we stopped for lunch and some fun.
Addison left the beach for some daring fun with Daddy.
Bob got his thrills too and did some skiing. He is the best once-a-year skier I have ever seen.
I am pretty sure this was Addison's first solo trip tubing. She wasn't so sure of the big waves though as the ozarks is a MUCH bigger lake than my parents lake.
Lucas took a turn with Bob.
We also got in plenty of relaxing swim time. The weather was perfect and the water felt great!
My handsome boy on the boat.
We took a quick trip to the strip.

Bumer boats was a lot of fun.
Here is our annual lake of the ozarks pic. Can't wait to come back next summer.

Friends at the lake (Part 2)

We went back to my parents lake house a few weekends ago (again) and this time my friends Becky and Venessa and their families joined us....so 6 adults and 6 kids. It was a full house and boy did we have fun. I guess we spent too much time having fun for me to pick up my camera much but here are a few shots below.
Addison and her model pose.
Lucas (and the other little boys) all fell asleep on the boat at the same time one afternoon.
While they were sleeping, their sisters were off being big adventurous girls and went tubing (with no adults). They all loved it!!!
Us adults got plenty of time to relax in the water as well which was fun!
Can't wait for all my friends to come down again next year for more lake fun!
