Holter with the Fontanas and the Jenkins

We left early Saturday morning to meet our family at Holter Lake. The boys were tuckered out after their late night at the Fair, so they slept in the car.

I made Luke shower Saturday morning (Josh showered Friday night after the fair because he got a piece of hay in his cast and wanted to try to wash it out, which worked!). Luke was so mad at me for making him shower that he got out of the shower, got dressed, and marched to the car where he promptly fell asleep.  We had about 20 minutes of loading left to do, but he slept through all that in the car. He woke up about an hour an a half later in Helena. 

We met at the dam and headed to Indian Springs, which the Jenkins remembered going to about 30 years ago!  Not much has changed. They were playing Eddie Rabbit on the cassette tape -- even through the outdoor speakers. 

It was the kind of place that had this as a wall-hanging.

The ladies room had this clear signal - pink bench - for us to know we were in the right place.  

I can't believe we didn't buy this when I found it on the for sale table.  Dammit! 

Warning: we took a ton of photos of the wakeboarding/surfing this weekend. We brought the real camera, and I could not choose just a few so there are MANY repetitive photos that I happen to love. :)

This one is a favorite because I love that Luke's not tall enough for his head to poke very far over the wakeboard.

He says he loves it, but this is his expression a lot of the time. 

He just came into the wake, and was relieved. ;) 

Nice smile!

He did a few jumps, and landed all but one. 

Josh tried surfing, and got up on his second try. He immediately yelled "Ya see this" and shook his cast!

Grampa Harley got this great shot of him landing, it looks so comfortable and easy.

And he's back up! Hanging loose!

Luke tried to get up surfing, but didn't really get the hang of it and didn't like it.  

Mike was doing some fun tricks up and down the wave, just like a pro. :) 

He rarely falls, I was so happy that we caught it on camera. It was a great crash!

Next was cliff jumping, since the lake was kinda windy and we love this kind of thing. Daddy demonstrating a pencil dive. 

Josh starts out pretty spread eagle, but he pulls it together in time for the water. 

Luke pretty much did the longest cannon ball, I can't believe he didn't break his shin bones. 

Doens't that make you cringe? He said none of his three jumps hurt, so that was great news. 

I give it a 8.3 for splash.

This time Josh held his pencil pose from the very top...

I joined them, along with Cassie, for a jump off the "small" rock.  Pretty fun!!

We had some fun tubers behind us for the rest of the afternoon.  Luke, Cassie, and Sierra had a grand time back there!

Luke showing them how to lean...

They're skipping the water and Luke knows what is in store for them.

I love that Cassie is laughing her head off, and I love Luke's hair.

Here is a silly sequence of a big jump! I loved watching Cassie's pony tail in these...

They're out of their seats!

Oh yeah!

Love Cassie and Sierra's faces

Love Cassie's pony tail

Jen, Josh and I went for a quick tube -- Josh doesn't like to go fast, Jen has a bad back and I'm happy to tag along.
