When we realized we were going to be able to rent this home on Lake Norman, we decided we’d try and get a couple of kayaks…Abbey has lots of experience on them from marine science camps, etc. and the other big kids were eager to try.  We’re considering them our moving in presents to ourselves :)

By now, you’re bound to be getting sick of water pictures! 

Randy and Abbey have a special relationship…here, Abbey is sharing some “water” with her dad. 

…and, “helping” him into the lake.  What a sweetie. 

Randy wanted them to practice tipping over, to make sure they’d know what to do if (when) it happens.  Marley needed help tipping hers! 

she can flip it back over, though.

Here comes a back buster!  The lifevest helped break the fall. 

Like my new tee? 

Abbey tried to help me into the lake, too. 

And, I’m ending with this.  She’s fearless with those floaties :)
