July 2013 - Bear Lake Fun

Grandpa and Alissa on Grandpa's boat

 Kim is excited to waterski for her first time this summer!

Kim got up her first try and skied several

times over two days without missing a start. 

After mommy had her turn skiing, Alissa wanted to try the knee board. Alissa insisted on being on her knees, but the board kept tipping so we had to convince her to lay on her stomach.

Once we convinced Alissa to get on her stomach, she was ready for the boat to start moving. Since Alissa was a little scared and mommy wasn't sure Alissa was strong enough to hold on to the rope by herself, mommy stayed with Alissa to help her. Everyone was so proud of Alissa for being brave enough to "board" behind the boat.

When Alissa was read to stop, mommy told her to let go of the rope.

 Here is a picture of Alissa enjoying grandpa's boat

 Grandpa has struggled to get up on waterski's for the last few years so he decided to drop a ski. You can see the "dropped ski" next to grandpa as he is skiing.

After waterskiing, we all decided to drive race cars. Alissa went with daddy while mommy and Grandpa had their own cars.

 

 While at Bear Lake, Alissa enjoyed swimming with mommy and grandpa. Alissa even jumped off the side of the pool many times.

 

Alissa fell asleep on grandpa after a day full of fun. Isn't this a cute picture of them sleeping?
