Pure Joy.

We were able to spend Sunday afternoon with some good friends of ours at a nearby lake for some delicious afternoon snacks, people watching and boating and tubing.

It was pure joy.

My favorite part, and probably the kids favorite part, was taking turns tubing around the lake.

I couldn't help but say that T's face and big, huge grin, is a perfect example of pure joy.

These are the things this boy lives for.

Getting ready. His hair is so white, it almost glows this summer.

Starting out.

He was flyin'. When he did finally fall off he hit the water so hard that he actually bounced TWICE!

Are there even words for this one?

M had her turn too. Though a much calmer ride than T's. And still not quite ready to ride alone, so BriAnna rode with her.

And H had his FIRST time. He loved it! Though he was very nervous (and I was nervous how he was going to react) but he did great. I have a feeling it won't be long and he'll be ready to be flyin' round the lake too!
