What a great few days we have had! We took advantage of Steve's schedule and an available room at Lake Havasu and did a mini family vacation! As it is now hot in Havasu (100+ temps!), the water is very warm, which is great for swimming and getting the kids in the lake! Being able to do lots of swimming always translates into a great time! This trip was especially great because we were actually able to go on a few family Jet-Ski trips. Because of the kids being so young, I have spent four years primarily beach-bound. But for the first time we were able to get out onto the lake with both kids - Faith and I rode together and Steve and Shane were together. The kids did so well and absolutely loved riding on the skis! One morning we rode to a restaurant on the Colorado River for breakfast, and this afternoon we rode to Havasu Springs for dinner! It was great. And of course we made stops each time at beaches along the way to drink some Gatorade and take a dip in the water. Unfortunately, I have no pictures of our Jet-Ski adventures (it's challenging to take them when we are all involved - especially in the water!), but here are a few other pics from our trip...
The jacuzzi tub is a must each night - complete with bubbles!
We had to go to the store, where the kids spotted beach balls. So they each picked one out, and that night they each needed to sleep with their new ball!
All ready to head down to the water!
The kids loved the squirt guns given to them by Uncle John and Aunt Sue!!
Playing with the new princess ball in the water
He loved the rocks...especially throwing them!
I tried to get him to just put them in the bucket
A few other cute things from the trip...After riding on the Jet-Ski, Shane would tell us over and over, "I ride Jet Ski!"
Faith loved watching the many boats, and especially loved seeing all the float things that they pulled. She called them buoys!
And both kids loved seeing ducks in the lake. One time Shane said, "Hi Duckies! How you doing? You swim in water too?"
