10,000 Lakes

Did I mention that the land of 10,000 lakes was so wonderful?  In case I did not....it's great!

We can't get enough of these lakes.   We discovered goggles and snorkels this summer and we have been pretty fascinated.  

Bub and I have been real big fans of tubing (even Magoo likes to be in the tune - floating around, not flying behind a boat).  This summer I decided to give water skiing a try.  Mommy didn't discourage, even though I heard after the fact that she was worried my small legs and arms wouldn't be tough enough.  She left the coaching up to Aunt Lisa, a really good skier.

First time was a charm...I DID IT!  I popped right up and decided to squat for a while.  My legs had to figure out how to balance, Lisa did say to bend my knees and I was far above the water compared to sitting in a tube!  Mom was so shocked that she barely took any pictures of me (none fully standing).  However, the entire lake heard her screaming how proud she was that I was skiing.  I'm sure she noticed from my beaming face...I was perfectly fine with her screaming because I was super proud, too!
