rolling on the river



Summer has been flying by....we had a great week last week filled with swim team (Elise went 5 seconds faster in her swim meet Wednesday!!!), a few rainy days, a trip to the library, and a fun night out for David and I with some of my awesome old high school friends. June is almost gone in the blink of an eye!














Yesterday we were thrilled to be invited by the Barrois Family to go on a boat ride. It was David and the kids' first ride down the Tchufuncte River. It was a BLAST! It brought back lots of memories for me of learning how to ski and having fun times on the river..but I think this may have topped most of those! Seeing Bennett so fascinated by how everything on the boat worked, and the girls L O V I N G the wind and watching the scenery. We even stopped at the swimming hole and the Dads and kids went for a swim! Later we docked the boat in Madisonville, grabbed a bite to eat at a restaurant on the river, and then continued our cruise. The kids were all so good and had so much fun. It was truly a great day.








It almost felt like a little mini-vacation for the afternoon....a great way to escape in our very own town! As you can imagine, the begging for a boat has already begun.....ha!
