Fun in the Sun!

Today we took our new boat out on the lake for the first time! Being new to the boating world, we had a few glitches (flooding the engine and taking off with the bimini top up...oops!), but we're learning! Once we got them worked out we had a great time! We decided that instead of a big family vacation to the beach this year, we'd buy a boat. After some much needed family time today, we know this is going to be such a blessing this summer. With the busyness of the church relocating over the next year, it will be really difficult to be out of town for a whole week. This will definitely give us that special family time to make lots of fun memories with our boys! Their favorite part today was fishing! Least favorite part...it is too cold to get in the water yet! I'm sure they thanked us at least 10 times for the boat, fishing and just the all around fun time we had out on the lake...here are some pics from the afternoon (notice the huge smiles on their faces).

OK - so do parents of friends (and really I think of you as my friend too) ever get to ride on the boat? :-) It really looks like you guys had a blast, and I know that there are many more good times yet to come!

Absolutely, Renee! Next pretty day you guys are in town, we'll have to hit the lake!
