Happy Father's Day

We are so lucky to live on the water. The temperature for Father's Day was predicted as being about 90 degrees and humid. And we could feel the heat as soon as we stepped outside, but Gee Dad had been promising that he was gonna take Maya out for a ride on the boat. We couldn't have gone out on a more perfect day!

Maya had recently gone on a trip with Grandma to IL to visit friends and family, while she was there she had a lot of opportunities to go swimming and by the end of the trip was swimming forward and backward only with the help of her water wings.

So when we got out on the water we anchored the boat so we could get out and swim. She was SO excited to get a chance to show off her newly learned skills. As soon as she got in the water, she instructed us that we were not to hold onto her, she could swim by herself.

Well, she sure did! We were all so impressed by her abilities! She turned into a little fish. We must have been in the water for a couple hours straight with her. She never really even tired from treading water. She even wanted to jump in from the back of the boat! She was so brave & we were so proud of her. She is really growing up fast and getting more independent by the day.

Our happy family on Father's Day.

We all had such a great time, but I think we were all worn out by the end of the day. Hopefully we will get out on the boat more in the next few weeks before the jellyfish start to pollute the waters as it warms up.
