Out on Grandpa's boat

For Grandma Angie's birthday, we took the boat on the Illinois River. All 3 girls enjoyed the adventure, a first for my younger two. The last time the boat was running and water worthy was when Abigail was 3.5 months old (Tabitha's age!). We were all grateful that Daddy and Grandpa are so handy with tools (and bleach!! it needed cleaning...) to get the boat ready for a new season of adventures.

very happy girls with their daddy. Having a boat is so much fun!

Where is Tabitha?

 

There she is!

 

Loving the swing after our picnic lunch.

 

Grandpa's Turn!

 



 

Being "in" the water is even more fun!

 

And helping drive the boat is even more fun than helping drive the tractor at home.
