Lake Vacation - rest of the trip

Mom and Dad arrived on Wednesday and I mostly quit taking pictures. We were too busy having fun! Dad took some really good pictures; you can see them at :http://macmac.smugmug.com/gallery/5487213_M77g6#P-1-12
He even got pictures of Miriam and Grandma being pulled on a float behind the ski boat!

Rob continued cooking for us all week. Here's a picture of him and Memphis while cooking some Memphis style ribs.
We went to Tanglewood by boat with a picnic dinner on Thursday evening. It has a great beach area with sand to play in and a nice area to play in the water. It also has a playground with the tallest slide I have ever seen; next time I'll get a picture of it. It actually made your heart stop beating to watch the girls climb to the top to slide down. Rebekah managed to flip over part way down one time and ended up going head first. Thankfully Mac-Mac was there to catch her at the bottom!

Michael had sand everywhere! He had a great time playing in it though!

Rebekah loved this "coconut" she was playing with.

She did so well on this trip; we were so proud of her. It only took her 2 times swimming in the lake to get really confident. By the end of the trip she was swimming all over the place by herself (with her life jacket on of course). She'd say, "I can do it myself!" even if she got a face full of water she didn't want anyone to touch her. She was so proud of herself!
