We decided to take a trip to the lake again, this time taking the boat and the jet ski out. We went to my mom’s Friday night so we wouldn’t have to make the entire 3 1/2-4 hour drive in the morning. We took Kevin’s little sister, his brother and his fiance, my brothers, and my brother’s friend out with us. I think we scared his little sister (Brittney, yes we have the same name and it does get confusing) on the way over by playing some tunes from back in the day! Jmo didn’t mind the bass and slept through it all. Saturday morning we got up and headed to New Melones Lake. It was pretty windy so we headed out to find a more protected area on the lake to get some wakeboarding going. I figured I would post lots of pictures so that everyone we were with can have access to them. Sorry about so many!

Weston tearing it up and attempting a back flip… turning out to not be the best idea

Paul on the jet ski… which after last weeks mishap works really well (story to follow).

Jameson’s time spent on the boat.

Kevin’s turn out.

After the crash, he resorted to the jet ski.

So as we were waiting for Lottie to get put the wakeboard on Kevin was off on the jet ski. Apparently he was adjusting the angle of the thruster trying to see if he could go faster or jump better and different angles. Well, he adjusted it and headed for some wakes. He hit the wakes all right going about 50 mph. He went one way and the jet ski went another. Since all our attention was on Lottie and she was the only one facing the other direction, she was the only witness. She yelled that he fell we turned around and then wondered if the key was attached to his wrist because the jet ski was still going. It was… but he was going so fast it took a while for the jet ski to slow down. So he had to make a good swim to get to it. Did he learn his lesson… nope! He did it a second time! Pretty funny!

Jeremy was up next.

They have these floating potties on the water for you. Well a few of our crew members needed to make a pit stop (I won’t say who 🙂 ) Jeremy was on the jet ski and entertained us all by mixing things up a bit. Well maybe those inside were not quite as entertained as we were!

Notice the big house boat in the back. Well it was apparently someone’s bachelor party and there was a huge sign on the side that said “Beads for boobs.” All the guys yelled as they went by. Thought about getting me some beads but Kevin didn’t approve. 🙂 It was hilarious though.

Paul was a good boat driver all day

After everyone was done boarding, it was tube time. By the way… I did wake board and knee board but there are no pictures since I was the picture taker.

Brittney and Lottie were the first to tube. They were valiant in holding on. Lottie was victorious on the first round.

Then Brittney

Then a battle for the win

Family time

We had a great time. Thanks so much to Mom and Don for letting us use their toys! Hopefully we can make it out again soon. We made it home just in time to teach our primary class… sore, burned, and all.
