Summer Day at the Lake

Caleb and Bethany & Caitlin Myers enjoying their ride on the lake. We had a beautiful and fun day.
My dear friend Tracy, she actually was relaxed on this trip. She has overcome alot with her fear of water. Way to go!
This is Wayne being pulled by the boat on a tube, he absolutely loved the thrill of skipping across the water. I haven't learned to drive the boat yet so his best friend was driving and having a great time making Wayne hang on for dear life.


Caitlin and Caleb were going to try and ride the tube together as we drove over to the cove so the kids could go swimming but they only made it a few feet before they both fell off the tube. They shared lots of laughter.


Bethany was such a trooper about tubing. She initially didn't want to get into the water, as she had never been on a lake before but she finally built up her courage and started loving it. Her dad was driving the boat and started out really slow and she kept giving the signal to go faster. She never did fall off the tube.


We had such a fun day on the lake with friends and shared lots of laughter and memories. There is nothing quite like a picnic lunch on the boat, we made ham sandwiches while the boat rocked and munched on oreos & grapes and enjoyed God's wonderful creation. Caleb is already asking when we are going to take the boat out again.

Awww, that sounds like heaven!!! I'd love a day on the lake. I couldn't believe the miracle of Wayne and Mike seeing each other on the interstate in Illinios! Isn't God AMAZING??? Hope your school year's off to a great start.

I definately felt it was God that led to two of them together, for man to have accomplished what happened that day it would have taken split second timing. It was a great encouragement to Wayne and I think Mike as well. We are now into week 4, so we are in full swing. We did have a totally awesome time on the lake, when you come up we will have to plan a day like that.
