We started off the summer with another sweet trip to Lake Mead. This time with even more friends and even more food. In fact, way too much food. Next time we'll have to plan better. We had the house boat stocked for the second coming. It was such a fun week though with tons of laughs and good memories. We were even able to pull off nap time with four pak-n-plays side by side and two kids sleeping on the bunk bed. It was quite a feat: )
Here's the house boat
Emyri chillin' on the beach probably pointing at something cool: )
We managed to build a ginormous slip and slide water jump on our beach...thanks to Kade working on it from the second we got there. Chad and I got the idea from youtube (who'd a thunk). It wasn't quite as cool or effective as this or this, but it was still a source of pure entertainment and enjoyment. Here is Aaron dying laughing at Matt going down head first.
Chad showing off the jump at the end of the slide. Needless to say, it was a fun little ride: )
A few of the kiddies....Kash, Austyn, and Emryi. (somehow I missed getting pictures of Hallie and Dayton and Cooper...sorry guys) And no, Austyn's hair isn't usually like that, it was a really windy day.
All the boys settling down for the night: ) j/k
Although we did fit 11 people in the house boat one night, the boys didn't really have to cuddle up that close: )
Emyri and Kash crackin' up as usual.
Chad and I shared a romantic walk on the beach
Chad's awesome picture of Kade spear fishing from the beach.
And last but not least...our baby beach sumo
Okay, so much for massive all encompassing update. More like massive one tracked lake mead post. I've been going at this for over an hour, so I'll continue this update later. I hope you all at least enjoyed the low down of Lake Mead. So, until next time.
to be continued...

How cute! Now that you've had all that fun you can come back to the burg and play with us!
That's awesome the whole slide deal, it looked like great fun! Who would have thought?
Hey Vandi, looks like you had a blast at Lake Mead, we have been there with Jared's brother a few times and it's lots of fun. so have you done any potty traingin attempts with Emmy? If you do potty train her, I would do it now or wait until a few months after the baby cause thats a tuff tranistion. Good Luck, it's not fun but when it happens it's so worth it and SO NICE not having to buy diapers.
What an awesome trip! I loved the picture of the guy spear fishing! It was a great photo... and I just may have to try that slip and slide one of these summers!
the pictures are fun. Slides like that are fun. In highschool we did a soap slide on a hill on our highschool campus. Have fun.
Vandi,

Vandi Lynn,
Hey, you're baby is not very babyish anymore. She is very cute and your blog is so cute! Yes, Manfy is dating my bro-in-law and things are going good so far. It's been a few months now. I watched the two kids singing and dancing on your utube video thing and the reason you could totally see yourself doing that is becuase we pretty much did. "Roosters Repair". I was laughing a lot too!
Big gulps eh?
Well talk to you later

Cute pics! I haven't seen Chad in years! You'll have to tell him Aleesha's friend Mandi says hi. You two are so cute together. And Chad sure is handsome. He landed himself quite the catch!
