For Labor Day when this year, we joined up with my family and enjoyed three days packed with all kinds of fun on the water at Green Peter. Kristen and I bought a used boat in August, which we used for water sports, and my Dad had his boat out for the weekend as the fishing vessel.
A highlight for me was getting to watch our kids enjoying the tube with their aunts and uncles.
In addition to tubing, we also had some skiing and kneeboarding happening too!
Sarah got up on slalom ski for the first time!
Joshua got started on the journey of learning to ski as well!
Elliott and Joshua both gave kneeboarding a try!
We had a little competition between Aaron and Joel to see who could stay on the longest… and against Avery (who was driving the boat) to see if he could buck one of us off.
It was also fun to just do some boating!
The fishing crew!
Isaac sure continued to have fun! He even got some one-on-one tubing time with his mom and dad!
But, we sure wore him out. Falling asleep while on the tube is a new precedent for us for “able to fall asleep anywhere!”
Less than 2 hours after we left, the wind direction changed and smoke poured in. We were thankful to have this last bit of summer before the terrible wildfires hit Oregon.
