Day 4 at Diamond Lake

We awoke to another beautiful sunrise but the picture I took today looks just like the picture I took yesterday morning. I may as well saved the trip out to take this one.
 Philip went first wake boarding this morning.
Rhoda was going to go next but today just struggled and ended up with a faceplant.
We moved the rope when it was David's turn and he was easily able to jump the wake with the new positioning.
He decided to try the front flip.
After breakfast we took the pontoon boat out, David decided to do a flip off the side as the pontoon was going full speed. We were quite far from the sand bar but David wanted to swim there for exercise so Lee kept a look out for him.
Nolan was our driver today taking us safely to the sand bar.
Phil and Anna went wake boarding off the jet ski then brought the jet ski over to the pontoon boat.
Jace was too tired and slept on the pontoon while the rest were swimming.
Jack was enjoying the boat ride and the swim.
Braelyn and Addyson climbed on board the jet ski.
David and Stef took Israel for a ride too.
On the way back we took a scenic tour around the island, the ferry was returning from the island after dropping off a couple cars.
We came in for lunch then started up the bag games.
Mark took out the jet ski for a tour around the lake.

Phil and Anna were usually the winners at the bag game and winners have to kiss.
Addyson, Taegan and Braelyn were having a tea party on the balcony this afternoon. No boys were allowed.
David and Stephanie lost at bags so David had to carry Stephanie to the water to throw her in but he didn't finish the job.
Lee and Rhoda made our dinner tonight. This was another 5 star meal. They served us crock pot chicken fajitas with sauteed onions, sweet red, yellow, green, and orange peppers along with chips, and all the toppings. It really was delicious and once we were done not much left.
After supper we went for a walk into town to a small ice cream shop. We were all hot and sweaty and by the time we made the 3.2 mile trip there and back. The kids are playing board games out on the porch. Emily called with an update on the animals at home. She put Hadassa,  Whitney and their fillies out in the paddock for a couple hours this evening while cleaning their stalls. She sent the picture below by email taken with her phone.
She also wrote that she doesn't think Emma is pregnant. She is just not showing like she should be showing as she is due in 2 days.
