Boat ride

Last night we went for a boat ride with Calvin's parents.  What a beautiful night for a boat ride!  It was so nice out, and we had a great time hanging out and relaxing.  Jocelyn had fun eating snacks and laughing at the dogs.  Yes, we brought the dogs.  I always think it's a good idea to bring them places because they need a little action in their lives, but then when we get there I remember why we don't bring them anywhere.  Actually, Ellie would be fine, it's just Ginger.  I think we need to get her anti-anxiety pills.  She just whines the whole time and is annoying!

Getting ready to go - having a little snack

Having another snack - she did such a nice job of sharing with Bumpa!  (and the dogs - although not on purpose)

Ellie was so embarrased to wear the life jacket!  We didn't keep it on very long, but she should have kept it on - she wanted to jump in every chance she got!

We let her get in, and threw Ginger in.  Ellie swam a few laps around the boat, then they both went up on land and wouldn't get back in!  Luckily they eventually did - Calvin wouldn't have been impressed if he would have had to go in after them!

Here's a little video of Ellie - she likes to bite water - it's really funny to watch with the hose at home.  She was so excited about it she was whining - I don't think I've ever heard her whine before!  You can see why she should have had her life jacket on!
