I love our family tradition of going to Redfish every year!!! I look forward to it for most of the year!!! This year was just as awesome as previous years. I even skiied!! I was really worried i wouldn't be able to get up since i have put on a bit of weight with just having another baby. But I did it!!!
Topher tried wakeboarding and skiing this year! He got up on the skiies and i am sure he will get up on the wakeboard next year!! TJ, Toph, and Creedance all kneeboarded. I think they all tubed too, but i know Pearson loved tubing!!! Pearson even jumped off the cliff at the other end of the lake this year! That boy has absolutely no fear. Tyler jumped with him and kept trying to talk him out of it but he would not be held back!!! I was a little spoiled this year and didn't have to stay in a tent. My dad got all the girls with small children a place to stay. It was wonderful but i missed camping a little bit tooo!! Toph and Cree ran with their cousins all week. Just had to make sure they ate every once in awhile. Tj had a hard time understanding why he couldn't just go as much as them but did pretty well over all.
Pearson, well Pearson is Pearson, he........ we basically played Where Is Pearson all week long!!!!!! Anytime you turned around for even a minute he had decided to go on a bike ride, head down to the boat, go look for Jake. That boy had fun but was sooooo hard to keep track of. One of my brothers asked him what was wrong with him. His answer was," I eat boogers!"
Talmage was an overall good sport. He didn't really love it but he tried not to be to grumpy!!!
I think Tyler had fun, he kept busy most of the time anyway. He had to work some and he had to keep the other 4 kiddos with him at night time.(only pearson was in the tent with him.) But he tubed, wakeboarded, and skiied so we will say he had fun!!!!
I am already looking forward to next year!!!
