beach party

 We got home from the bike rodeo and had about an hour to put away some groceries and then we headed over to our annual beginning of summer beach party.  It was super fun.  We had several boats and canoes and wake boards and a sea-doo and a dock to jump off of. 
 The kids played for hours and the weather was perfect.  I rode on the back of a jet ski for the first time ever.  It was fun :)  Lu also rode on one, she loved it.  She was such a little trouper and swam without tiring the whole afternoon.  Han took off with the other girls the second we got there and I didn't see her again :)  Big and Little were having fun at the soccer party.

Around 5pm they arrived to have dinner with us, and so did a huge storm.  The sky turned black and before long it was pouring.  Kristin and I ran over to put away the canoes and a huge tree fell down next to us.  It was torrential. 

Still at the end of the day I would call it a huge success.  The kids had a great time, everyone had enough to eat, Robert and Spencer grilled for us and did an awesome job, no one drowned and all the canoes got put away :)

By the time we got home around 6ish the storm had passed and R did some yard work.

I was talking with one of the young women who came over for a chat and Lu fell asleep on the couch, she was beat...too much fun!
Sierra and Hannah just left to go out to dinner and the house is quiet.  It was a good good day.
