The Lake!

One of the weekends that my sister was here I got a wild hair to spend the afternoon at the lake! The weather was nice prior to leaving my parents house but almost as soon as we got there and all got wet, wow the wind sure started blowing. That is one thing about Yuba...if the wind blows, it really really blows! We enjoyed what little bit of sun we did get to enjoy.




Jeslyn loves the water. She is like a fish!



I got wild hair and decided to challenge myself to see if I could swim all the way out to the buoy. I made it, barely! Good thing I am a pretty good swimmer and know how to float on my back to catch my breath! From the picture it doesn't appear to be that far, oh but it was.



Then it became TeMpEsTuOuS...and fast!
Jeslyn's tube blew away and she couldn't run fast enough to catch it, luckily the fellow beachers helped her out and grabbed it.


We decided since we got cheated out of basking in the sun that we would try it one more time, so the next day we loaded up hours earlier than the day before in hopes that if there was a storm that we would beat it. This time Jauncee joined us.










Jeslyn had fun building a sand castle and Max couldn't wait to destroy it. We had to hold him back just so we could get a picture of her masterpiece!






I was missing someone . . . wishing he could have been there with us! I think he was cussing me because I should have been at church. Sorry dear, next time!



All in all, We had a great time. Thanks Ging for coming with us. It was well worth the 3 hours it took me to finally get all the sand out of my car!
