On Sunday, we got all packed up and headed to Coeur D'Alene, Idaho for a nice holiday! Jason and I haven't had a relaxing holiday in ages so we decided to take Mum, Dad & Steven there to relax in the sun.
We took the boat but had a few problems the first day, so we decided to relax on the beach while it was being fixed. Kayle certainly had fun playing in the water with Granny & Grandad!
On the 2nd day the boat was fixed so we didn't waste any time taking it out... we weren't sure how Kayle would do because she hasn't been out on it since she was a baby... but... she did great and was even jumping off the back of the boat into our arms! (Video to come!)
Kayle loved just hanging out in the water with us... she had so much fun swimming!
We had a great time the first day just hanging out on the boat... we found this great hiden cove and had a fun just anchoring off and chilling out.
We had one tired baby each and every day... she always fell asleep on the boat.
So did some other people!
It was so nice being able to just jump off the back of the boat and hang out in the water to cool off... and to pee!!
Kayle enjoying getting to run riot on the boat... she especially like the drivers seat!
This pretty much sums up the holiday... chilling out in the sun with a few beers on the boat!! (It also sums up my brother pretty well!!)
Dad had a great time on the boat just getting to sit around and do nothing...
We had a great time teaching Steven how to wakeboard too.. he worked really hard and got pretty good by the end of the 2nd day!

Dad was our 'Flagman'... every time one of us was in the water he had his flag up in the air straight away... he even stood up and screamed and shouted when someone got a bit close!
We all cracked up laughing!
Jason and I got to work on our wakebaord sillks too... I managed to pluck up enough courage to jump the wake... it was really fun until I face-planted into the wake as I landed and shook my brain!
Jason had lots of fun too!
Kayle loved hanging out with her Granny.
We had to make sure that Kayle was wearing a hat all the time because the sun was pretty hot... she didn't want to wear her hat... but wanted to wear her dads!!!
Mum enjoyed relaxing in the sun!
So did Dad and Kayle... wile eating a nice bag of crisps (chips).

Steven made the most of the peace and quiet on the last day and got in some reading time!
Here is the cool cove we found.. it was towards the end of the lake and was very secluded..

it was so peaceful!
We all enjoyed our last splash in the water before we had to get the boat out the water and start our journey home...
Once we got all the boat our the water and the car loaded up, we decided to take one last stroll around the boardwalk to have a look at the 'Wooden Boat Festival'. There were tons of old classic wooden boats... they were amazing. While we were walking around we also decided to treat ourselves to a nice BIG ice-cream! Grandad & Kayle shared a Mint Choc Chip!
Our last walk on the boardwalk... Kayle got tired towards the end and got a ride from her Grandad! 
Then she managed to con her grandad and Uncle into giving her a ride...
they were counting '1, 2, 3... woooo' and then swinging her inthe air. Even when they were all done, Kayle was still shouting '1,2,3... wooo'!
We all had a great time and really enjoyed just relaxing in the warm sunshine...
