Fun in the Sun

The best thing about summer is boating. We love going to the lake whenever possible.
Ellie loves to wakeboard with Shawn, but this time he decided to get her on the surfboard with him. He even had her let go of his legs for a while, he's trying to start her out young. She had a blast!!

She wanted to wakeboard on her own, so instead we let her try out the knee board. She had a hard time keeping her balance but, as you can see by the smile on her face, she didn't care.

You can see where Ellie gets her abilities from. This picture doesn't do him justice, but Shawn is definitely a shredder. (Maybe I need to take photography lessons)

Swimming

The girls love swimming, especially with their cousins. We have spent a lot of time in the water this summer (what else do you do in St. George?)
Ellie's BFF, her cousin Lainee. Watch out Boys!!
It took a while, but Ashtyn finally got the nerve to go down the slide by herself. After she got used to it, she didn't want to stop.

Unless it was to play with her cousin Lincoln. She loves babies more than anything.
