1st time on the boat . . .

Well our first experience taking the boat out could have been better. We got to East Canyon Lake, backed down the boat, and it wouldn't start. So, after a few more tries Ryan finally got it to start long enough to pull into a slip. I parked the truck and trailer and after I joined him we both realized the battery was dead. Ryan's dad was planning on meeting us up there after lunch so we called him and told him we were going to need a new battery or there would be no boating. So Ryan, Sara and I just hung out on the boat for about 2 hours 'til his dad got there with the battery. We were a little bored but Sara was absolutely loving life. She was just crawling around and on everything in the boat and couldn't be happier. (as you can see)

So Ryan's Dad finally made it up there with TJ, and Ryan's cousins Savannah, and the twins, Emery and Rachel. We got the new battery in and the boat was up and running as good as new! It was nothing but fun from then on out.

Unfortunately we couldn't find the cigarette lighter for the pump to blow up the tube. But we still had fun swimming, hanging out on the boat and everyone took a turn on the kneeboard. Even me and my baby bump :) This is Savannah, got up on her first try second time around...

So, even though things could have been better it was really fun for our first time and we can't wait to take it out again!
