We went to Flaming Gorge on Wesley's parents boat while in Utah. It had been a couple of years since we'd been there and was as fun as I remembered. I'll be honest that I was completely stressed and nervous bringing our boys on the boat 3 days in a row but they did just fine and were great on the boat. They both loved it.
We fished, skied, played in the water, relaxed and had a great time! The family is getting so big that we all have to take turns so Dave and Marilee go about 3-4 times every summer with each family. And Marilee has it down to a T! She has everything organized so perfectly, menus, snacks, drinks, you name it. She's a great hostess! It was such a fun trip! We had a great time with Dave and Marilee!
Here's Wes with one of the fish he caught - we just catch and release.
Wes, Jake and I playing in the water. Yeah, I picked the picture that was blocking my face on purpose...
This picture doesn't really show how high this cliff was. It looked a lot higher than the picture shows, and yes, Wesley did this one solo. Too high for me!
This is where COoper was most of the time. Just in between the driver and passenger laying down. He loved it. This was also where he rolled over for the first time, and of course, Wesley and I missed it. It was bound to happen since we missed Jake's first steps too. But Cooper is rolling over like crazy now!
Wes is a great skier. He is great at slalom, I just learned to ski a couple years back and I can do 2 skis, but I thought I'd try slalom this year... yeah, I never got up. I finallly got to the point where I had the right form, I just had to hold on longer (don't ask me how you are supposed to do that). It was so hard! All of you that can slalom are amazing - I don't know how you are able to hold on that long to get up! Maybe next year I'll try again. Here's Wes wakeboarding

Jake's favorite time, aside from riding the tube with Wes was when we stopped the boat and floated in the shade along the canyon wall. He'd take turns hanging out in the tube splashing and jumping. Here he is with Grandma enjoying the shade
On the tube with daddy - we didn't think he'd take to it so well, but he loved it and didn't want to get off
Our family
