A first experience that got better!






Thanks to a wonderful dad and husband..........the girls and I set out for our first girls vacation up north. We found a place to rent and loved it. For labor day weekend, the guys joined us and we moved to another resort and saved the experience of canoeing with them. Let's say the video is taken an hour or so after Shelby had her major panic attack and cried through the first 45 minutes of the experience..........it was not pleasant, but when it was almost done, she thought it was "dorky!" Now.......4 years later, she kayaks by herself and gets in and out of the boat to frog hunt and check out spiders.

Laughter!


I love laughter....especially when it comes from children. I feel that is one of the greatest sounds we have.........and this picture represents a time when tears were flowing because we were laughing so hard.
