Anne and JD had such a blast at Mini golf, we have to go back soon.
At the cookout there was a tire swing, and Anne cautiously watched as Shawn was being swirled all around and up and down. Now if you know Anne she is cautiously anxious about things. She watched and asked alot of questions about the swing. "can you fall off", "how high does it go?" and "is it tied tightly to the tree"...after about 2 hours of watching kids swinging on it, she jumped on and loved it. Here is a picture of her enjoying her cute little self.
On to the boat, JD and Anne had their official first 2008 boat ride today. It was a little hairy at first. JD didn't like when the boat moved too much and he was very tightly holding on to me when Daddy took off out of the slip. JD would not even look up. He just sat on my lap saying "I am ok, momma". Well, after an hour he wasn't the same little boy, he and Anne were fishing and having a great time eating snacks and sitting on the side of the boat. Daddy bought a remote control boat for the "kids" he he, I am sure Daddy wanted it too LOL but they put it in the ocean and off it went. These are a couple of pictures of them fishing, eating and lying down underneath resting for a nap. Gotta love the fresh salt air around nap time!!! If you look in the background of 2 of the pictures you will notice a Wizard of Oz looking sky...that's right, we ended up with Lightning, thunder and a little rain shower for our first adventure...luckily we were headed in anyways but it got scary for a few minutes. Now we are at home and the sun is shining again. Umph!
We also bought Nanny a cake for her hip surgery. She has waited a LONG time to get her hip replaced and is FINALLY going to get it done on Wednesday. We are going to miss her terribly in the daycare (she works with me) but now when she is in full recovery, she will be a brand new bionic woman! Good luck Mom, aka Nanny...we wish you a speedy recovery! We bought her a cake for good luck, I wasn't sure what to write on it, so I was a little creative. It was yummy!

I love the pictures! JD looked like he had a GREAT time after the initial portion of the boat ride. That cake was very cute-very tongue and cheek! I am jealous you guys were on the boat. We used to have one, but my parents hated the upkeep! I'll live vicariously through you!
What great pictures! The kids are so cute! How nice you live so close to the water (and nice water!) to go out boating and getting the kids into that is great! I'm scared of the water, and don't want my kids to be. It does look like fun though. The cake is great! Very creative and cute! Thanks for the post and pics. It's always nice to hear how everyone is doing! It's great the kids can putt putt too- I think Will would be all over the place trying to chuck the golf ball.
Anne and JD are so cute! Looks like you had a blast on the boat! Glad the kids had fun. Please send our best to your mom, hoping for a quick and easy recovery!
Trace would be so jealous - all he has is a little blow up boat with a 6V motor to use in the pool!
Sounds like your summer is off to a fun start!
