it is summertime

Russ and i got to go down to his dad's house this past tuesday and wednesday to hang out on the lake, and it was so much fun! it was the first time that i have been to their house since christmas, so it was good to get down there again! we absolutely love visiting jay and kelley, and wish we had more spare time to visit them more, but hopefully since this is my last week working we can plan to get down there way more often!
they practically live out on the water, and jay has a really nice new boat, so we got to join them for a nice evening, with dinner on the boat (Subway sandwiches, my favorite right now!)

Here we are out on the boat, ready for a great relaxing evening on Weiss Lake!


This is Kelley, Russ's stepmom.


And this is Jay, Russ's dad.


We also got to watch Jay ski for a bit (he used to be a professional!) Here are several shots of him out on the water. I played on Picnik with all these, so enjoy!


you can click on this sequence one below to make it a little bigger. It is a little backward though since we read left to right, but he was jumping from the right to left side... i guess chinese people would think it looked right though...




Kelley also has several videos of him wakesurfing on Youtube, they are pretty cool! You should check them out! This is his most recent one.

We spent the night and woke up Wednesday afternoon, laid out on the dock, played in the water, and did a little fishing (we never even had a bite, i think it was way too hot...)

Russ rode around on the jet ski for a little while. I really wanted to go out there with him, and he promised he would go really slow, but thought it better to wait till after Caedmon arrives before I try getting on a jet ski again... being 30 weeks pregnant and being on a jet-ski didn't sound like a really good idea...


There are so many fun things to do on the lake! Thanks to Jay & Kelley for having us!

So it is my official position that if you guys go to the lake again that you should take us along for some boat riding and jet ski fun, I'm just saying, you would have so much more fun if we were there, haha.
