BIG Red

Randy's latest purchase:  a canoe.  I call her Big Red because she's big and red.  Landon tolerates the ride if he has food to eat or if I hang him over the edge to splash in the water.  Ethan will jump out for a swim but only with his wet suit on and Marcus loves the lake because there aren't any sharks.  I like to row around the lake for a couple reasons.  First, that I think it's pretty cool to live so close to a lake.  We can just carry our canoe over and launch it.  Second, I pretend I'm paddling on a dragon boat in Okinawa which is much cooler than an old canoe.

  1. Wow ... how cool to live next to a lake! I love the last picture of Ethan - he looks so cute in his wet suit and haircut.

  2. We're looking forward to a ride next time we visit. Don't let Marcus talk to Hayden about sharks or he might hear a lecture on river sharks that can end up in lakes... ugh... :)

  3. I would do the same thing (pretend it was a dragon boat on the East China Sea) :-)
