My parents!

This summer is FLYING by!  Last week, my parents came into town to visit!  It is always so good to see them and I especially love when the girls get to know and play with them too.  We took them up to the lake and had a blast.  The weather was great and we had a fun relaxing time together.  My dad did however, break the new visitor record and swam across the lake!  Not bad for a grandpa!! :)  He says he could have swam back too.  :)  I kayaked out with him to make sure boats could see him and then we BOTH hopped into the one-seater kayak to head back home.  Something does NOT work well when you try to kayak with two people in the boat.  For whatever reason, when you paddle on the left, you know you're supposed to go to the right, but when you have two people in, you paddle left and GO LEFT!  This totally messes with your head!!  So it took us FOREVER to get back because for one, we kept going in circles, kept almost tipping, and it's much harder paddling with the extra weight and waves from the boats!  My poor dad swam the whole lake and then had to paddle us all the way back since I was struggling to not go in circles and he was doing much better than I was.  So funny though!!  

Here's Grandpa Joel and his 3 little fishies :)   (EAH)
