Labor Day Weekend

Everyone loves a holiday weekend a time to relax, sleep in, and even barbecue.  Before we can relax and enjoy it was time for Peach Days in Hurricane.  Hurricane nows how to celebrate and everyone comes out to enjoy all the fun.

Love the floats
This one was for a towing company.

This parade even
has the marching band.
That is what has been missing from
the other parades.

These girls were
all smiles and enjoying sitting down.
It was now time to head to the lake and have some fun with the new kayaks that Dave & Ryder bought a few weeks ago.  Dave, Ryder, and Reganne have all been out playing but now it's my turn.  My greatest fear is tipping over and getting wet.  We are off to Quail Creek.

Dang!!!
They are heavy and require 2 people.
Not one that is too clumsy.

I did it.
But not without a few mishaps.
I didn't fall in but instead went around in circles.
Between Dave & Ryder yelling instructions
and me trying to follow was not a good combo.

Reganne swimming
and Ryder relaxing in the kayak.
This is definitely a work out.
It was a fun afternoon and the hopefully the sore muscles will wait until Tuesday to appear.  Monday morning time to head back to the lake for some boating.  Arriving early meant it was cloudy and a little windy.

Reganne was
the first one in and soon
reported that it was still a little chilly.

Ryder didn't believe her
and quickly jumped in.
He discovered that she wasn't lying.

Ryder & Reganne
It was too rough to knee board
so tubing was next on the agenda.

Rylee & Ryder
After much begging Rylee decided to
take a turn.

So boring!!!
They decided to sit up and
turn around .
That was fun and declared it a must
do next time.
The wind picked up it was time to get off.  The dock was full of people doing the same thing.  It required 3 of us to hold on tight to the boat while Dave brought the trailer down.  Hopefully, we can fit one more trip in this year.  However, it was time for Rylee to head to work and the rest of us to barbecue with the Wheelers.

It was another crazy busy holiday weekend.  We enjoyed our time together and enjoy these last days of summer.  As the days start cooling off we look forward to more adventures in Zion's or even more kayaking.
