Since my last post was all about Lucy getting her stitches...it's only appropriate that this post is all about our new boat. Mostly this is because the two events happened less than 24 hrs apart from each other. Another thing to add to the list of why our kids are so awesome (and my husband too) is that immediately following the ER trip, they switched vehicles and drove 2 1/2 hrs up to Tomohawk, WI to trade in our boat for this new(er) one. I got an evening and a full day to myself, although I actually didn't sleep well with it being that way! But since getting the newer boat, we've been able to make good use of it and have really enjoyed the extras that our older boat didn't have...such as a deeper bow and better seating...plus its got two platforms on the back to help facilitate getting into and out of the boat easier (and work as great jumping off platforms for Keller). While on their trip, they were able to meet up with some of Broghan's cousins and their kids and in that time, his cousin Mike's oldest daughter, Kate, showed Keller how to trust his life jacket and float and swim without touching! SO AWESOME!
Side profile - gotta love the teal and pink...ahh back to the 90's we go! lol.

Same old engine we had before but with a brand new paint job.
First time out on the river...just floatin'..
Dad's handling it.. ;)
Cutie! Gotta protect those stitches!
Keller REALLY likes Lucy's hat..
This wasn't actually taken on the boat but in our back yard...I am in LOVE with Lucy's curls..and this was after boating all day...so it fits here.
This was on a trip we took up to another lake ~45 minutes away...Keller is a pro-fisherman!
Lucy just likes to hang out and play with my stuff when we fish..
This is funny...we finally decided to head in..and at the landing Broghan mentioned he saw some fish swimming around (we had caught NOTHING up to this point) so I through a hook in...and low and behold caught a fish! I was the first the catch a fish on the new boat :). Sorry for the over exposed skin shot..my belly is taking over!
Keller finally touched a fish!
Hanging out on the river...
Trying to create shade where the is none..it worked!
That's Keller...just floating...haha, don't worry, we're in a cove with no current...and I could touch where he was...great picture though!
Until Next Time..
