day 2 in michigan...

Day two started with the kids in the water again by 10 am. They began with a little fun with the pink ring...
... it matches her feather well, no? (oh... I forgot to post it here... Clara got feather extensions last week... one pink feather, one purple).

They decided to try jumping into the ring from the seawall.

Alex was up first...


Almost!

Clara went, but I recorded it instead of taking photos... still have to transfer the videos to my computer.

Alex is up again...

.... getting closer!

Now Clara...


Bull's Eye!!

Alex looking rather macho with his new mustache....
Jeff came out after a while and took the kids tubing behind the wave runner (lots of video of this).

They love it... especially Alex...
Clara getting ready to go....
And her trip back in after a successful ride...

By then it was time for lunch. But that didn't keep them in long. In no time at all, they were right back out in the water. This time over at the rope swing....



From there they met a friend and ended back over on the canal side to slide and go off the diving board. Grandpa and grandma supervised so I have no photos or video.

Then, it started to pour! We all came inside and played cards for a while, waiting for the rain to let up. It finally did and at about 6:00 some friends pulled up in their jet boat to take the kids tubing and knee boarding! They were out another two hours before finally calling it a day. They were so exhausted, but extremely happy!!
