Braces and Boating

This is the last smile pre-braces. 

This is Josh's new smile!  We think he looks like a middle schooler now, for sure! 

We checked out another used furniture store, and Luke found this gem for the lake house.  He thinks it's realistic enough for us to hang on the mantle.  

Gramma and grampa are in town and we met for lunch.  Apparently the kids are not too old to pose with ladybug statues. 

Friday night we went to Hebgen Lake with Miek and Bonnie.  We met the Billings family members (Mike's Aunt Luann and Uncle Ron, plus two of their daughters and their families). 

The sunset Friday night was gorgeous! 

Saturday we had a lot of cousins on our boat, and Josh spent a lot of time teaching them how to surf.  When it was Luke's turn to surf, he did a little showing off--he had a great ride and was signing to the music and being silly.  

Josh was having a blast surfing for fun in a hat. 

Saturday night the smoke came into the valley, which made for interesting pictures.  Josh got HUGE air wake boarding.  He jumped the wake and on one of his attempts even had a scorpion fall, where he did a somersault fall.  Crazy kid. 

Sunday morning Josh made dinner with dad's help.  Luke was in charge of keeping the fire going.  The boys are getting to be quite helpful.
