A day on the Lake

My Sister Sarah was in town this week for Easter.  My wonderful in laws had a great idea to take the boat out to Jordanelle on Tuesday.  It was a great trip.  Me, Matt, and Sarah took turns driving.  We had lots of yummy food to eat.  Emme loved that grandma brought Capri Suns.  Poor Livi found getting around in her life jacket was hard, but it was cute to watch her try.  No one caught any fish, though Sarah got several bites.  It was a nice day.  
Her hat stayed on for about ten minutes.


She had a hard time holding on to her bottle

Don't Ever Let Her Have Your CAMERA.  Or you will have pictures like this 

Did better in the pink one but still had a hard time.  Funny thing is she didn't cry or fuss.

Sarah drove the boat.  She even parked it on the trailer on the first try!

Last Trip of the Summer to Jordanelle

This summer Matt's parents bought a boat.  So off and on we have gone to Jordanelle to go boating.  This was pretty exciting because as a child we never really went boating.  If we were on a boat it was in search of fish.  So this was a different experience for me.  This time we skipped the swimming and inner tubing as the water was cold.  Instead Matt, his dad and Matt's brother fished.  I got to drive the boat for the first time!!!  I even docked it with out and issue.  Though I didn't do so well trying to get it on the trailer, but I just need some practice, which my father in law said I can get next summer when we go out again.  Emme of course loved every minute of the boat ride.  She danced to the music, feed ice to her doll, ate too many chips and cookies.  Poor little girl threw up all over the floor.  Sadly no one caught any fish, oh well maybe next year!!!
He was cold so he stole Olivia's blanket

She did this to herself


Driving the boat! Matt called me Captain the rest of the afternoon
