july 13

our first day out on the boat!  heather and danny's new boat is awesome, and we were all happy to be out on the water today.  unfortunately, the weather isn't cooperating, but we made the most of it.  we did have very short periods of sun, but mostly we ran from the rain all day.  it didn't stop us from enjoying the water, the boat and the company of family.  i was surprised by how much all the kids loved swimming in the lake.  everyone had fun in the water and some of the kids (and big kids) were daring enough to jump off the boat.  a certain someone even did flips off the boat!  it was a really great, fun & relaxing day.

tonight we celebrated jackson's birthday with a little party.  the kids had fun outside smacking the pinata and roasting marshmallows for s'mores.  the rain made things a little slippery so we ended up back inside before too long.  uncle kevin showed jackson some moves on his new skateboard, the kids put up the "fort in a bag" i made for jackson's birthday, and they all fought over the tools that uncle danny and aunt heather gave jackson :)  what a fun birthday celebration for jackson!  i hope it's one he always remembers.
