SunRiver part 3 – Canoeing
July 4th, 2011. (3 years, 1 month old.) by benMonday was the big canoe trip. First, we went for a ride in a big van with canoes on the trailers. I got to see snow out the window!
Before getting in the canoes, Daddy helped me make the necessary preparations.
Then it was time to get my life vest on and pose for a picture.
After that, the guides (Matt and Chase) told everyone what we would be doing. I thought I could listen best by getting in the boat and visualizing.
Finally, it was time to leave. Here we go!
Then it was my turn to paddle. It turns out that this is harder than it looks! I gave Mommy her paddle back pretty quickly.
Avery was in her own boat with Uncle John and Aunt Heather.
Once we got to shore, it was time for a snack. That stuff that looks like snow in the background…?
… it really is snow!
When we all got back and it was time to get in the vans, I got ready to direct everybody to their seats. Can you find me?
New adventures in boating and tree watering for Ben! I bet you really enjoyed getting out on the lake in a canoe. Good thing that you didn’t fall into the water though as it probably would be very cold since it came from the snow that was still melting around the lake. Looks like you were very helpful getting everyone seated in the vans as well. Glad to see you having such a good time.
