Boating

This day could easily mark the best day of summer '09 because it included two of my favorite things: spending time with my family and boating. We spent the day on the Columbia River. The water was smooth and there weren't many boats on the water. We had a picnic in the park and spent the rest of the day on the water. It was bliss...I love boating and miss going as often as I used to.

First time going wake boarding this summer and I got up my first time! The sad thing is that I was SO sore the following day.

My nephew Daniel taking it easy in the park. I hadn't met little Daniel since he was born last October until this trip. He is such a cute and sweet little boy.

Niel and I would like to get a boat when Niel is a PA huh Niel? OK. Actually that is just me...but I am working on Niel. You should leave some comments in favor of owning a boat to help me with my cause. Thanks.

Fun Darc! Glad you got to go. You guys should DEFINITELY get a boat and then convince us to go boating with you. We'll get the summer beach house and convince you to come stay with us :)

Boats are pretty fun. My sister and her family have one and they go wakeboarding all the time. Her kids love it! P.S. how do you upload such big pictures?

Nice pics, Darci. The one of Daniel is so cute.
Sure was fun seeing you and everyone at the reunion. Let's hope it's not too long before we get to see you again!
