Another 1st for the Boys!!

The boys had their 1st adventure on the boat 2 Sundays ago & even though it started off a bit rocky it ended PERFECTLY!!

When we got the boys out of the car to put their life vests on they both had melt downs.  The tight & constricting feeling was what bothered B & what bothered Colt was the fact that B was screaming at the top of his lungs to get his off so Colt wanted his off too.  I just walked down the ramp & all way way around the dock to our boat (which of course just so happened to be in one of the furthest slips) holding a screaming, kicking & yelling B that was trying with all of his might to rip his life vest off.  I finally got to the boat where he again was very upset & nervous BUT he finally calmed down once we started moving & the rest was perfection!!



This little guy had no fear of anything that was happening.  He was walking around on the boat like it was land! 

We finally got to a calm place & B was ready for the water.  He didn't ever get far away from the ladder but had a blast jumping in & out. 

The water was pretty rough so we didn't let Colt get in & he was fine with just watching anyway!

Plus he got time with daddy!! 


We had a great time & I wish I would have packed their lunch so that they could have stayed longer.  Honestly I planned for a very large disaster & really was pleased with the whole morning! 

The boys went home with JuJu & PaPa & Lance & I stayed on the lake & had a little alone time.  It was the best day & I can't wait to take them again!!

Relaxing Times are Being Had Here

We have always had a boat but when B was born & then Colt arrived we decided to sale the pontoon boat we had & get another one when the time was right.  Well the time was right about a month & a half ago & we have been enjoying the lake ever since.  We actually just took the boys out yesterday for the first time & I haven't looked & I haven't downloaded the photos yet but can't wait too.


Lance & I have actually just been going out alone during the week while the boys are in school just for some much needed us time. 


Having a boat is not all fun & games; it is a lot of work but it is work I am willing to do!!!
