Holiday Weekend

So we spent the weekend at the cabin...........swimming:
 Our cabin is just behind these "monsters" ... we can only dream of being able to buy one of these :) but it puts it into perspective of where our house is with regards to the lake.
How Austin spent his weekend........jumping off the boat into the lake.....he really is amphibious 
 This is just a far away shot of the lake area where we spent most of our time.
 Austin could be in this inner tube all day; and I do mean all day!!  We pulled him behind the boat for quite a while.  This is a picture of him before we talked about hand signals....so for like 10 minutes we are driving around the lake and we have no idea what he is saying, but we know he was talking non-stop.  Seems he was saying go faster, slow down, and stop....we now have hand signals :)
An & I keeping close watch on the talker 
 When we docked for lunch An needed to go to the little girls room, so Eric took here to the bathroom, well just as they walked into the boy's room, there was a wasp nest and a wasp bit An; the worst part was that it got tangled in her hair and bit her twice while trying to get out of her hair.  It was a red wasp and my mom was allergic, so we were super worried!!!  We rushed home and got her a Benadryl and Tylenol and she was fine.  She actually seemed to forget about it until we would ask her how she was feeling ... poor thing!!
 Some how Eric convinced me that I could take Ans out on the tube and he could pull us slowly....it lasted for a bit but eventually we dumped out.... A2 did NOT like that at all!!  No more tube for her and I for a while :)
 A1 on the other hand could stay in it all day...until
 Oh that's right my friends....we let A2 drive the boat while Austin was in the float!!!!!  HAHAHA
 Can you see her little head behind the steering wheel????
"Hey An, don't look at Austin, look at Daddy ... don't worry about steering, smile and wave for the camera!!!" ............ okay, kidding!!!!  I am out of the picture but am actually holding onto the wheel and throttle the whole time....tricked ya!!
 After all of that fun, we had to get some rest!!!
Happy 4th of July America!!
