Boat-shipping!

Yesterday we went boating with our good friends here in VA. All week I have been telling Savannah that we were going boating on Saturday. Somehow she understood it as "boat-shipping" and kept telling her dad and brother: "Do you know that we are going boat-shipping?"

As soon as she climbed onto the boat, she assumed the position below.

We had a wonderful time. Ashkii* and I went tubing, though we couldn't get the kids to. They just loved to stop and jump in - the water was super warm. Ashkii even wake boarded- he is a little sore today!

Trevor's favorite part of the trip was helping drive the boat and dumping his dad off of the tube in the process.

All in all, it was a great time, and an awesome way to enjoy and cool off in the humid east-coast weather!

*You all know my hubby by a different name (Rich, Richard, Richy, Ashkii). I have lovingly adopted his nickname of Ashkii, which means "little boy" in Navajo (his dad served a Navajo-speaking mission for the LDS church), and I will refer to him as Ashkii in the blog.

Oh man! Savvy-pants makes me laugh so hard! I love that chick! I am glad that you guys had fun! Tell Trev I said good luck with his second week of first grade.

Ready for a new post please.

Let me help you think of things to tell us about:

The time Trevor 'kicked the nurse'
How Savvy knows how to manipulate me and mom
pictures of your garden

That should give you some ideas...
