4th at PK

We headed back down to the lake on Friday...We took the boat to Hell's gate for a little while but Kohen and Jaxson couldn't wait to get back to eat dinner...Because after dinner, one of Jayson's coaches were coming to fish...Kohen was pumped...So all the boys loaded up--6 of them and went fisihing for the evening...Everyone caught a fish...Kohen was proud of this sand bass....He loved it....

 Saturday we loaded up and headed back out to Hell's gate to spend the day....In fact, I think we were out there around 6 hours and the kids were all troopers...The key was getting our huge raft out there...So we put it on top of the boat...The kids hung out under it until we got the pontoon unloaded...

We were able to get a great spot

And we hung out, ate, played, swam for hours and hours....

Kohen tends to get dehydrated at the lake and sometimes will start running a fever at night, so we were determined to keep him full of water and gatorade that day

They threw out lots of beach balls and the boys got them one:)

Kresee took her a nap in the boat in the middle of the day and then was back out in the water...

 We were glad we took one sea-doo b/c we had to take make two trips back to the lake house for some kiddos (Kohen and Kenzie) to use the restroom:)

Then we knew it was time to load up around 6 and get home to cook dinner...In a very short time frame, the clouds rolled in...The wind started blowing like crazy and before we knew it, we were getting rained on hard...Boats were getting un-anchored and just being pushed from the wind hitting other boats....We got everyone in the boat....Then the huge raft wanted to take flight...We got it on the boat, the kids underneath it...Shellie got on the seadoo so it didnt get smashed by another boat...I got on top of the raft while Kerry tried to maneuver the boat so Jayson could get us un-anchored...I couldnt hold the raft...I thought I was going to go flying off with it at least 3 times...So I made poor scared Jaxson get on top of it with me...It was raining so hard I couldn't even see...I was fah-reeezing!...Then some goofball right as we were getting ready to leave drives around us with his anchor still in the water and gets his rope all tied up around our boat...It was a huge mess and made us sit out there in this huge mess another good 15-20 minutes!!...We were all pretty annoyed and stressed out...But we survived and by the time we got back to the dock, it was no longer raining...Oh my word...It was an experience with 5 kiddos!

We got back to the house and Shellie couldn't stop laughing at my Medusa hair do...It was a huge mess sticking straight up all over the place from the wind, rain and humidity...haha...
