We have to find a better system for keeping the toys secured to the deck.
Anyway.
Last year when we went on vacation, I saw a ton of these floating "pads" that were huge and could hold several people.
Some were being towed behind boats, some were just floating with people on them.
I really, really, really wanted one for this year.
I thought we'd have a boat this year too...but that didn't happen.
When I brought it up to Steve that I wanted one of these Aqua Lily Pads.
He was pretty much appalled at the price and said this to me:
"So after vacation what are we gonna do with it. Seems like overkill. We won't use it a lot. I don't think we need it."
Mind you this is after I already confirmed with my friends that we'd be getting one. LOL.
I tried to find a cheaper one.
I was also anxious because of the timing. We're getting close and I'm afraid of things not arriving in time.
WELL.
We went to dinner one night and he pulled up the thing on another website that was about $70 cheaper.
And he pulled the trigger!
We got the 15' x 6' one.
And it arrived this week.

Hands down the best investment this summer. Steve agrees that he didn't know much about it when I asked about it and now that we have it - it makes total sense. It works great in the pool, obviously and will be amazing on vacation.
I was texting with my friend Rich and we were just saying that over the course of the next couple of years we'll have a ton of fun toys for vacation.
Rich has the boat and tube. Andy has the Jet Ski.
We have this giant thing (we will have to strap it to the roof of the truck because we won't be able to fit all our stuff in the truck WITH this thing in there). And hopefully we'll have a boat next year. At least we can rent one.
18 days!
