Run on the River

Austin's first time on a tube!  He loved it - wasn't scared at all.  I'm so proud!

Today we met up with my brother, his girlfriend Whitney, and my brother's coworker/friend Ben.  We met up at Bukholt Park and went for a ride on his boat....Kyle, Ben, and Whitney wake boarded (something I'm itching to do!), Michael skied, and Ethan and I just hung out in the boat.  A combination of relatively recent childbirth and Mommy Nature's wrath this month took away all hopes of me getting into a swimsuit today.  Hopefully the next time we're out on the water the timing will be better and I'll be ready to gear up and either slalom ski or try wake boarding.  

My punk-ass little brother and his rockstar moves on the board!

Hangin' with Ethan....the poor vest was practically choking him...need to reinVEST in a new one.  Sorry, couldn't resist that....!

Austin holding tight to Daddy's thumb.  He decided he needed to hang on to something, and since there were no handles, Daddy's thumb would do just the trick!
