Vacation Day 2

It seemed we all went to bed early last night until we looked at the time and found it was 11:00 pm Michigan time. 6:00 am came early. Breakfast was served at 8:15 am of scrambled eggs, biscuits, sausage, sausage gravy, vine ripened tmatoes, cheese, orange juice and coffee. Right after breakfast we held church out on the lawn. David had the message then it was time to head out on the boats. This time the wake boarders went in the motor boat while the rest went on the pontoon which we tried to keep near for pictures and videos. First up was Rhoda, a short video was taken but the boat was pretty far away and the sun on the wrong side of the boat. Next up was Phil, then David. I actually got some good video of them which will be rendered and uploaded when we get home. The battery ran out about then on the video camera so the still camera was taken out just in time to get a couple of shots of Karin wake boarding.

Ben was up next but by that time we needed to head in as we promised to help the neighbor lady move a paddle boat at 10:30. Taegan was glad to help her dad drive us in.
 Below the girls and Molly are lined up watching as we get ready to pull in to the dock.
 The 2 swans came visiting right at our
We arrived back only to find the man picking up the paddle boat had already come and gone. He had no problem getting it loaded and they didn't need our help. After lunch we had a bean bag tournament with all the adults playing. Mom and I lost miserably the others gave it an intense competition but the ultimate winners were Phil and Anna surprise surprise. The kids decided that looked like a pretty fun game.
We had one scare tonight during our perfectly grilled steak dinner Israel disappeared. He crawled into the house from the porch where we were eating, through the house, out the back door and up the steps all the way to the gravel parking lot before David and Stephanie found him. 
We had another perfect day weather wise, almost too much sunshine. 
I heard from Mark who is at home taking care of things that the golf cart is fixed and running. Mike was able to track down the loose wire and also replaced the connections. Mark said each time he walks by the horses they all call to him. He offered to grain them thereby earning their everlasting loyalty, that is until I get home.
