On Saturday we went to Millterton Lake with the McCauley's (Aaron and Haley) and the Bohn's. We had so much fun! I missed the kids though. It was fun to watch the kids and swim in the lake. Tyler got up on the wake board and went forever!!! It was so cool! I'm excited for Austin to come home. I know he really wanted to try to wake board after learning to snow board last winter.They had this really cool surf board thing! It looks like a surf board, but you use a rope to get up. The idea is that you ride the wake just off the back of the boat. Haley went first and I was so impressed! She is such a rock star! It is so funny to me to see her be so awesome at all that stuff because she is so sweet. You should see her wake board! She is awesome!
Ashlyn wasn't so sure about her life jacket at first. In fact she was pretty annoyed with it! :-) She loves the water though! As soon as she got wet, she forgot all about it. She was a trooper and so darn cute! We took about a million pictures! Seriously, we took over 200 pictures while we were out there. A lot of them were pictures of us trying to surf and trying to capture the perfect wipe out in a picture! We have a few videos but I don't know how to put them on here. As usual, you can see more pictures on the Rickards Family Photos link. Just click on the Millerton Lake folder.
It was a great day! We didn't get off the lake until almost 9! We stopped and got pizza on the way back into town. I am so grateful to have such good friends!

It looks like you guys had a great time. I miss having warm lakes to swim in. All of Utah's lakes are freezing or disgusting! It makes me miss Whiskeytown. I have been trying to convince Aaron to go this year but he thinks that Chloe is too little. But we will for sure be there next year, it has been way too long! Ashlyn is pretty dang cute in her life jacket.
Devon! You guys have to come!!! It wouldn't be the same without you! Chloe is the perfect age because she is so easy! Just wait until she is mobile! Then it gets tricky! :-) Keep working on him!
Tara, I can't find your post from yesterday so maybe you removed it. Maybe you decided against publishing it but I just want you to know that I am praying for you. I don't know what to say except you have many many people who love you. You are an amazing person with amazing strengths and a good man by your side. Together you can make it through this. If you ever need anything, I'll do whatever I can. Love you!
