Father's Day

We went to Nockamixon Park/Lake Nockamixon for Father's Day. First we went to the pool. Skyler loved the shallow area which is as big as most pools and has three different "water park" areas: a giant mushroom, water spill-poor onto your head-buckets, and water sprayers. It had 2 water slides in the "deep end" which was really 4'7."

After the pool (we stayed in the pool the entire time since it was 90+ degrees out) we went to the boat rental at the marina and rented a 14' motor boat aka motor skiff. Manny & Shayna fished while I hung out with Skyler. The first 15-20 minutes he cried & kvetched because he didn't like the lifevest and god knows what else annoyed him. He did like when the boat moved but then we had to stop so they could fish. Eventually he got his sea legs and was enjoying peering over the side and climbing on and off the seat.

We went ashore around 7pm and then had a relaxing picnic in the shade right by the lake beach- there was a perfect picnic table spot only feet from the water. After eating Shayna & Skyler had a blast feeding the ducks!
