JUNE FUN

First time @ the lake sporting my new life vest @ 21 months old.
We bought this zodiac type boat with an electric motor last year that I affectionately named, Rubber Ducky. Darryl even made a little song for it (it's a family secret). It is so amazing as last year we talked about our daughter....dreamed of when we would find out who she was....when we'd go to China....and how much fun we'd have with her in the boat. God is so good and now I understand the verse that says, Oh taste and see that the Lord is good.


Yeah, my first boat ride

Darlin's how much longer will it be?

Is this the famous Rubber Ducky that Dad & Mom have been telling me about?



"Sitting on the dock of the bay"......waiting to launch Rubber Ducky HMS. Liliah was very cautious about this new adventure and wanted to stay close to her mama. I know, it's a tough job, but someone's got to do it :D

The captain of Rubber Ducky, HMS (her majesties' service)

I held out the camera in front of us and did pretty good getting all of us as we headed out....

Beautiful viewing from the boat



Dream house along the lake

Here's how others get around the lake

Great pictures. Love the shades. Our minister did his sermon yesterday on taste and see that the Lord is good, so funny you mentioned it in your post.
