Fall Boating

We had some beautiful weather in late October. Grandma and Grandpa's boat was already out of the water but we got to take out on of the marina's new pontoon boats last week for one last spin on the lake.

Sylvia was a little unsure when we started and wanted to snuggle up with Grandma. I don't think Grandma minded.


She got braver as the ride went on and spent most of the time hanging over the side pulling up the bumpers and dropping them.


Sylvia also got to drive the boat "all her best" with directions from Grandpa. She's learning left and right so it was good practice. She did a very good job listening and only pulled on the throttle once. Luckily she slowed the boat down instead of taking off.


Eric also enjoyed the boat ride. I purchased this fleece a few days earlier and we definitely needed it.


He also drove the boat but with a little more help from Grandpa.


Thanks for a fun (and slightly windy by the end) boat ride!
