Lake Roosevelt

Labor Day weekend we made our annual trip to Lake Roosevelt. On the way, there was an alien invasion!


Tristan, Ashlyn, and Wade play in the sand.


Wade burying himself.


Cute buns.


3 matching boys...triple trouble!


A view of the camp... There were 2 bathrooms, 2 food tents, 6 boats, 10 sleeping tents, lots of camp chairs, and 29 people.


This is a picture of our "new" boat. It is a 1976 Bayliner. We bought it from some of the friends right before we left for Lk Roos. It has a closed bow, with a cabin underneath. Eric slept in the cabin while we were camping and said that it was very comfortable. The seats also make into 2 more beds, so it can sleep four comfortably. It is obviously an old boat, and somewhat tattered, but it seems to be great for us. I like the deep sides, especially with little ones. Jason and I both waterskiied behind it, and the boat did a great job of pulling us.

Randy brought his "deer" to shoot at. Rod and Randy both have new compound bows, with range finders, and scopes. They are both very accurate with them!


Then there's Jason using Dad's recurve...





Climbing the rocks for cliff jumping.


Rob and Mandy Buckingham came for a couple of days!!


The belt broke on Mom and Dad's boat... Here Lewis, or maybe it's Clark, tries to row everyone to safety.


Rachelle with baby Wade


Me with Thing One

All in all, a very relaxing weekend!

Hey! I just happened upon your blog while searching for Jaspar. (I'm her cousin, the photographer from the wedding.) Tristan looks so different! And a very late congrats is in order for Wade!
