boating and tubing


“Look Mom, no hands”!!!  What a weekend!!  I couldn’t believe that GiGi was on the first tube ride of the year!  She couldn’t get to the back of the boat fast enough to get on that tube!  It was so cool!  We wiped out last year so I wasn’t sure how she was going to react.   Obviously, it didn’t bother her!!
The water was cold but that didn’t stop her from going on the wave runner either!  We must have sang every song we knew when we were wave runnin’!  It was awesome.  Then she hung out in the hot tub for a little while and did some four wheeling with the kids.  It still is so funny to me that I thought all this was over for us when she was born.  She is the one that makes it the most fun!  If I only knew….
