A Big Sunday for Ainsley!!
Jeff is a water guy! He loves lakes, rivers, oceans, boats, jet ski's, and anything that floats! When we met he was living on the Cumberland River in Nashville. Our weekends were spent chasing the sun! I knew this would be part of our life. When you have three daughters and a Dad who loves water sports, you can only pray that at least one of them will embrace this passion too. I am happy to say that we think "The Pearl" is that girl! This summer we are seeing a child who can't get enough of tubing, swimming, etc. She has gone from cautious to our little dare devil. The faster the better! Music to her Dad's ears!!!
Sunday was a BIG day! Ainsley decided she wanted to try knee boarding! So, Jeff and I took her out on the Jet Ski... Jeff got in the water with her to help her get the feel for getting up... Then he got on the back of the SeaDoo with me to spot! First attempt, Ainsley was up!!!!! We pulled her around the lake for a long time, and she did great!!!!!! So fun to see her so excited too.. Almost as excited as her Daddy!!!!
While we were on the lake, friends of ours stopped to see if they could take Ainsley tubing.. So she left us and jumped on with them for some fun on their Mambo... A few hours later we connected to find out she got in the water with Sarah and attempted water skiing for the first time too!!!! And, she got up the first attempt!!! Even after she fell she tried two more times!
Quote from her Dad, "I have waited 9 years for this!!!" Way to go Ainsley!!!!
We can't wait until next weekend to see her skiing and knee boarding around the lake! Camp H will be there to cheer her on!
By the way, Miss Sienna wants to try knee boarding too!!! Stay tuned!
Blessings,

That is the best thing! Our girls love being out on the lake too! We just got a tentative itinerary today!Hopefully will leave around 24th and get SJ on the 29th!!! :) Have you looked at our auction? Would love it if some of your readers took a look. We have about 4 weeks to raise the remaining $2000 for orphanage fee. :)
Blessings!

Love it when the kids bond by loving the same things mommy/daddy love!! What a well rounded girl Ainsley is! Can't wait to see if Sienna loves it too! Ruby must be content to just watch!
I am sure she was amazing! Ainsley is so athletic - I am not surprised it was not a problem!!
And - can't WAIT to see Sienna out there too!! :)
So fun!! My boys would be in heaven!! I bet Sienna will give Ainsley a run for her money!!
Way to go, Ainsley!! :)
And Happy belated Birthday to Miss Sienna! The photos are absolutely priceless! What a JOY!!
She's smart, she's cute, and she loves water sports...you are in BIG trouble when she is older. You're going to have boys begging to take her out for some summer fun. I agree with "snekcip", she is very well-rounded.
Now where are the pictures???

WAY TO GO, Ainsley!! :)
What fun! Gotta love summer time in MN...we aren't called "The Land of 10,000 Lakes" for nothing! ;)
Nothing beats Minnesota summer fun, especially at The Rouse lake house!! LOVE IT! SOOOO proud of Ainsley! Can't wait to see her in action this weekend :)!!! She's growing up so fast, DI :(!!!!
Way to go Ainsley!! I can just picture you out in that lake! I love all of those water sports as well! I bet Sienna will be out there soon. Lulu would be cheering you all on from inside the boat with a big life vest on:)
