Today was going to be the day that Duane spent getting the boat ready for the season. We were both ready for a day of swearing, frustration, etc. We did not get the boat out at all last year (because of the crappy "summer" weather and moving houses) and my Dad was worried we'd have trouble starting it back up this year. Not at all! Duane had it purring in about 30 minutes and then we had the crazy idea to take it out on the water and make sure it was running smoothly. Once that was decided, I was running around like crazy packing up a cooler, the boating bag, ordering Liv to pack toys, etc! We picked up lunch at Jimmy John's, ate in the truck, and by 1pm, we were happily cruising out on White Bear Lake....it was such a great day!

| as soon as we parked the boat, she wanted out and in the water! Unfortunately, in our rush, we failed to pack enough toys and other things to entertain Liv but she did well enough with a random sprinkling can and "clam" shell found on the beach. |

| I hope she's thinking, "my life is good!" |
A day spent on WBL is not complete without a trip to Cup-N-Cone! After a line that was about halfway down the block, we had our ice cream cones and thoroughly enjoyed them. We were about 4 minutes down the road, heading home, and Liv was faaaast asleep in her car seat! She woke up as we pulled into our driveway and had a hard time waking up - I guess that's what we get for skipping her nap. It was worth it!

| not the most flattering of pictures but she was quite happy with her Kiddie Orange Cone! she even asked me if she could finish mine....umm....no! |
