Redfish is always awesome and this year totally rocked!!
We played in the sand with each other. Okay maybe I didn't, but other people did.
This picture is a prime example of the difference between Allison's girls and mine. Elleree never had a chance with me as her mom.
Beckett often did some solitary playing, when he wasn't following Eli around to hit him.
Rylie was very patient and caught a couple of chipmunks. She and Travis had big plans, but it didn't work out.
The kids all skied a ton. I get so proud when I see them get up, they are better than I ever was at their age.
They seem to enjoy it more than I did too. I hope it will turn into a life sport for them. It has treated me well.
Allison got a couple pictures of me skiing.
I defiantly have a good side.
She got some of Jason too.
It helps to see yourself and what you are doing wrong.
The kids tubed, and sometimes I am sad that I am getting so old and lazy that my willingness to go tubing dwindles each year.
We were there the same time as our childhood friends the Huffakers. We used to go every year to Redfish with them. Now they all have families of their own, it was good to see them and catch up. It brought back so many memories.
The girls had a dancing party in the boat.
Truman, and few of my other kids threw tantrums.
Beckett was his usual monster self. I just love this picture because it has Elleree's butt in the background. My mom says she is just like me!
These are some of my awesome cousins Darcie, Douglas and Travis. I am closer to these guys than I am to some of my siblings. I love them!
These two are the little twin cousins. They were born only 10 days apart and have always been silly.
We did some napping.
We did some people/kid/water watching. We always like to just sit relax and see what there is to see. Don't be jealous of my hat. I call it my sexy, so that when I put it on I can say "I got my sexy on".
On the way home we stopped to get pictures with the cousins.
We also stopped because we got a flat tire on the boat. Thank goodness Allison was behind us and called to tell us to stop. She said she thought at first we were running over stuff, then she realized it was coming from us. She saved us from having to get a new rim, just barely.
It was a good trip. I can't wait until next year!

Totally jealous!
Another great year in the Redfish sand. The numbers on the beach grow and grow. The little ones never mind and it is priceless memories for all.
Sorry not to stop in this year. It used to be a tradition for me too.
So glad you got some good cousin time too.
What a great family tradition. It's nice that you keep it up. It will be awesome memories for your kids being able to spend time with their cousins. It's priceless!
I miss Redfish! Maybe some year I will crash your party. Looks like another fabulous year. Scary tire, I wouldn't even know what to do.
How fun! I love the hat, it is totally sexy......I can't tell which side is your bad side while skiing, really I can't they both look awesome. I don't really know anything about water skiing though.....so just ask me anytime you need an ego boost! The kids are all adorable, as usual!
Looks like Redfish lived up to the tradition. Great times all around. I think your hat is perfect...and you ALWAYS have your sexy on with or without the hat.
Great photos of some great times.
