Yuba Lake

My friend, Jill, and I took some of our children (well, all of hers and some of mine) to Yuba Lake for a few days. We had so much fun. We spent most of the time on the water but we also found time for reading, playing Ticket to Ride, singing campfire songs, and making s'mores. We also roasted (or melted) Starbursts over the fire which was a favorite with the kids. Too bad for our husbands who stayed home to work. We missed them if for no other reason than it would have given Jill and I a break on driving the waverunners. I am actually a little saddle sore.

Zach reading at the shore.




Chandler and I on the waverunner. He likes speed! He drives about 40 mph and flies over wakes!




Abby and Shanley in Big Bertha (the tube).




Hannah, Jill, and Cole towing the tube.

Alec and I. Alec just likes to ride. He whoops and hollers in my ear the entire time. There is no doubt he enjoys himself.




Taking time for a cool break at the Dairy Queen in Scipio (after all, we had to refill the waverunners with gas -- no need to waste the trip into town)
