"Take Me To The River"

We've been housing Geno's boat at our house since the vacation, and we thought we would put it to use; so we loaded it up on the trailer and made a day of it. We went down to the Red River with a couple of 'river-wise' guys to cruise around. It was a gorgeous, although very warm, day for boating. Shelby, you were not real thrilled with the life-jacket wearing, but it wasn't anything that your bankie and paci couldn't help. We docked the boat on a sandbar, and Landon, you had a blast. Sliding down the sandy bank, getting all covered in mud, then racing down to the water to rinse off and do it again, was so much fun. Shel, if you weren't being held by Mom or Dad, you weren't happy. Wet sand, dry sand, it didn't matter. You HATED all sand. I tried to get you to touch it and play with it, but you weren't having it. You decided that hanging on the boat and eating some snacks was more your speed. We had a lot of fun together as a family. Hopefully one day we'll have our own boat, so we can go out cruising and playing anytime.
