Chris' love for wakeboarding has just recently sparked into a big hobby of his. He decided to bring his wakeboard along and see if the pontoon would work. Why not?
Mom, Dad, Chris and I all set out at Green Turtle Bay with our Pontoon, Tube, and Wakeboard ready to get the lake day started!
We hadn't got a mile from the marina when Chris and I decided it was time to get wet! On to the tube we go!!.... Or, at least we tried to get on the tube!
I promise, we eventually got on it and didn't fall off!
Chris was dying to try his new wakeboard behind the pontoon. He was afraid it wouldn't work, but he's a tough guy!
I was one proud fiance! Look at my man!
I on the other hand, have never wakeboarded, and was somewhat skeptical of it. I have water skiied and loved it! But, having both of your feet strapped to one board? That's just not my style.
Since I am a great fiance, I promised Chris that I would try it. He really wanted me to! Maybe later....
Surprisingly, our niece and nephew were able to join us later in the day!
Noah's first lake trip!
Mady is a pro when it comes to boating, look at that killer smile!!
Noah learned the ropes, he even co-captained the pontoon with my Dad! Way to go, Noah!!
The kiddos only stayed for a few hours and then they all heading back home to take their nap. It was great seeing them!
Chris wanted to make sure he could captain the boat too. Not sure he pulls off the hat as well as my Dad does!
I guess I have waited long enough. It was time to try wake-boarding. I was actually pretty nervous. I wasn't even sure if I would be able to get up out of the water....
I guess first time is a charm!! Not only did I get up on my first time, I pulled a 180 turn! I almost fell off because I could hear Chris from the boat proclaiming how excited he was for me!
What can I say now? I'm a pro!!
I'm glad Chris was so proud of me! I was really proud of me too! I guess this means we're heading to Wake Nation together soon!
Now, with only a short time left for the day, we pulled into a cove to eat dinner. Who doesn't love bologna and tomato sandwiches on the water!?
It has been SUCH a fun boating day! This is always a tradition I'd like to keep: family, pontoon, water, FUN! Until next year, but my heart will go on....
After we left the lake we headed to the Elk and Bison Prairie. My family and I always loved going to see how many Elk and Bison we could see. We couldn't believe just how many we saw this trip, and how close they got to us!
This fella is just ready to climb in the truck bed and head on home with us!
The place was crawling with Elk and Bison!
Us Gooch's love our Elk and Bison!
A weekend to KY Lake is never complete without a trip to Patti's though. I couldn't wait for Chris to try the porkchop!
My porkchop...
I had ordered a baked potato with it, so no, I don't put that much butter on my chop!
Chris' porkchop...
What big fries you have!
Our porkchops...
And ten minutes later... they were gone!
We had such a fun weekend with my family at KY Lake! I'm so glad I got to share that with Chris!
