I'm in LOVE

We bought our boat very late in the season. 

Like, the second week in August. 

It just kinda happened.

I wasn't sure how much use we'd get out of it this season.

We've been so lucky that we've been able to get it out on the water every single week since we've bought it. (Except last weekend)

I'm LOVING EVERY FUCKING SECOND OF IT. 

I'm SO glad we are enjoying this boat as a family. Some people don't love it. I'm glad we do.

But on Saturday, I was planning on hanging on with Trista at her house since Rich happened to be away looking at a truck. 

Turned out that the truck was a POS and Rich was on his way home and wanted to go boating.

Well then.

I won't say no to that! 

He had texted me the night before telling me to bring life jackets since he was trying to get home in time to go boating, but since the truck didn't work out, I wasn't sure if he'd be in the mood or what.

But, I got to do my favorite thing with my favorite people! (Minus Steve).

The girls got to play on a huge sand mountain and Trista and I DID end up being able to day drink. 👌

Before Rich got home, and before we actually confirmed to go boating, we had decided to order pizza and wings for the kids. 

Some playing around before lunch arrived.

Ava to Kenny "will you jump on the trampoline with us" omg so cute. 

This freaking sand hill went up SO HIGH. Like, I could NOT see the kids when they got to the top. But this spot was awesome and shallow and WARM.

SO MUCH FUN

We went for an insanely fast boat ride - I was screaming and laughing at the same time.

Looking like an old kid, driving the boat! Kenny passed his boater certification too! So proud of this kid. 

Just a head. We lost her PFD on the way out last weekend so she's wearing mine...I gotta get her a new one ASAP. 

I'm SO grateful to have such amazing friends. 

We have such a nice time and our kids are growing up together and I just freaking love it.
