Shushwap Vacation


We went to the Shushwaps for our anual Smith-Leavitt-Steed vacation. We rented a sweet cabin and spent a week hanging out with our best friends. What more could you ask for?



This is me wakeboarding! No joke - this is what it looked like when I tried to wakeboard for the majority of the week!

I did finally manage to figure it out! This is me being so awesome and getting out of the wake. Oh, and Scott figured it out too. Just jokes, Scott was AMAZING! He did this sweet, sweet trick where someone on the boat threw him a football while he was wakeboarding and he caught it without falling! Unfortunately someone was too slow with the camera (sorry guys) so you will just have to take my word for it.

It was so beautiful there on the lake. The weather was amazing and the water was great (even if it was a little cold). Here Moses is throwing rocks into the water (a favorite pastime of his wherever we are).


A good old fashioned s'more campfire!

Kael was such a good boy this trip. He was only 6 weeks old, but he was great about chilling at the beach and letting us bundle him up at night. His little swim outfit was a gift from Scott's sister. His rashgaurd says, "King of the Beach" - I think he is such a cutie!


Tommy and Moses! At first Moses was a little afraid of Tommy. Actually he cried everytime Tommy came near him (kind of a sissy boy). But by the end of the week, they got a long great. Someday they will be best buds!

A mom and son tube ride! Even though you can't tell from his facial expressions (you never can tell what he is thinking), Moses loved it. He got really excited (not scared) when it started going faster! In fact, even though Moses is a sissy boy about most things, the boat was not one of them. He loved everything about the boat. Everytime the boat went out, he was sure he was on it. He learned all the boating terminolgy, even busting out a, "Look at the lake, it's like glassssss," when we weren't expecting it.


We alternated between babysitting the kids and golfing. The boys would go, then it would be the girls turn. Yeah, we girls looked great! (that is all I am going to say about our game). Scott golfed a 38 on 9 holes, 3 pars in a row! It was a personal best for him. We girls decided that we will someday retire in the town of Chase where this course is located, with or without our husbands!



The Boys with their creepy mustaches and their sweet, sweet signature moves. Yes our husbands can sometimes be embarrassing, but they make us laugh and that is why we love them!
