Papa's boat

Always fun when papa wants to take the boat out.  This time he invited all the grand kids for a quick trip down the canals.  It was going to be a king tide so the canal is really full, the water can come up really high sometimes.  All the kids had a great time of course, our kids love their cousins so much!

Miss Ivy:

Lauren fell asleep and had a good nap during all the fun!

 Eden and one her fav aunties, Corinne.  As always, Corinne helped me out so much! I couldn't have done half of the fun stuff without her by my side co-parenting!

Papa treated us to ice cream from Cold Rock! We gently (ha!!!) pulled up to the main canal and anchored for a while, Leah jumped off the boat and brought back ice cream for everyone.  It was a little dramatic at a few moments but Papa held us off of the side of the canal with his buoy and some strength.  We had quite the crowd gather for a look at what was going on, (slightly embarrassing) but boy were we happy when we got some cold ice cream in the end!

 And then into the pool they all went for a quick cool down from that Aussie sun.  It was stinkin' hot!
