The Lake

We finally got our boat out of storage and went to the lake. Just the 4 of us. It was Dylan's first time and Jaxon's second. Jaxon bawled when we first got there he didn't want to get in the water and he was scard to walk on the dock. He never really has liked swimming. I always hoped they would just jump right in and be little water dogs, but I guess we still have time. I just love this picture of Dylan, it just looks so sweet and innocent staring out to the water. He is getting so big. Needless to say Dylan loved the water he just ran around in it and kept falling in face first. Jaxon's favorite part was digging in the sand, he has always been a little gardener, he takes after his grandpa mattinson. We tried to build sand castles, but Dylan kept knocking them over. The sand was nice and soft and the kids loved it.
This is just the two of them busy at work, digging, playing having fun. Jaxon didn't want to leave by the end, he was running around in the water and splashing. He was even brave enough to walk all the way out and touch the boat. His daddy let him drive the boat and he loved that, we kept saying should we go home and he was like "not yet." That is our boat in the back, its an oldy but a goody. We have had some good times in that boat. We hope to take a few more trips out this summer and let the kids get used to it.
