Fun at Lake Mead!

Here are some shots from our recent trip to Lake Mead! We were there over the Fourth of July. We go to Lake Mead every 4th of July with the Searle's. We spent time with Bert and Maggie, went to dinner, and they came out on the lake with us. Bert brought a fishing pole and he and Ethan went fishing. Bert caught 5 catfish that day. Ethan helped him catch 2 of those. It made his day. Ethan wanted to go out on the boat with us after fishing for a while, so he told Bert-"Don't catch any fish until without me!" Jordan got to try out our new toy, the wakekite. It says if you have trouble setting it up, then it is too windy. Well, we should have listened. Nobody got hurt, but we got the cord in the prop a couple times so we called it quits. Jordan attempted his second 360 jump. Failed attempt. It scares me to watch him, but I love to watch him try new things. He isn't afraid of anything and that's what I love about him. Megan spent most of her time in the lake, Naked. She loved the water, and would cry when she wasn't in it. Ethan had a blast at the pool, but we couldn't get him in the lake much. Only at the shore would he go in. Jacob, finally after the third day on the lake, decided to wakeboard. He got right up and was in and out of the wake. What a stud. Taylor was not feeling herself on the trip so she and I hung out in the water most of the time. Rob's family made an unexpected last minute decision to meet us in Vegas. His brother Kenny came down from Cedar City with Brenda and they brought Amanda and Little Kenny. We took them out on the lake and had such a great time. Little Kenny got to tube, waterski, and drive the boat. Later that day, Kathleen, Rob's sister, came down with his Mom and 2 kids. We hung out by the pool the rest of the day and just visited with everyone. It was great to be able to see family that we haven't seen in a while. All in All, it was a great trip. Some minor complications with the boat, but much fun and memories were made!
