We had some good wind days and lots of fun on the water. Here's Keith...
And here's me - I'm the one with the brown and blue kite.
The kids even got into the water with the kites for the first time this year. Drew showed his muscles before heading out in to the water for a little ride on Keith's back during a body drag.
Hannah suited up for her first body drag. For those of you non-kite boarders - a body drag is where you let the kite drag you through the water to learn how to safely use the kites power. She has been practicing flying kites on land and was ready for the next step. She came back with a big smile on her face, so I'd say it was a success.
Aside from the great kite boarding, the best part of the trip was time with family. We had plenty of quality time with cousins. Maren and Drew were reading Junie B. Jones to each other on the bunk beds.
Neil and Izzy spent lots of time on the swings. Give me an underdog anyone???
There were plenty of cousins to play with in the sand and the water.
Even Grandma Hyde joined us. Thanks Sue & Bill, Rick & Judy for bringing her. It was so fun to have you all there. Next year we want to see you in the water!
Just about everyone tried out the small kites on land -
A hike out to the point and a little rock climbing -
Crafts in the trailer -
It was a wonderful weekend! When can we go again?
