Kayak

Well, I finally bought a kayak. Matthew has been asking if we can get one for a while. So yesterday after running a couple of other errands we went to Dicks and bought a kayak. Then the challenge was getting it home. I have never had to strap anything to the roof of my car, but the guy from Dick's ended up helping me get it tied down. Once we got it home and I realized that my husband was not going to divorce me for the purchase, we all piled in the car and headed to the lake.
We had a blast but man is it an upper body work out.

Matthew has already asked about going back to the lake today. He had a really good time. I think next year we may buy him his own.

The weekend

We went to my in laws Friday as soon as I got off work. It was my mother in laws birthday so Matthew brought her three bouquets of flowers. Saturday my niece Rachel brought the baby down. He is so sweet. Nosy little boy. He eventually fell asleep in my arms and it was so sweet. Matthew got to hold him too. I is amazing how much Matthew loves babies.

Matthew and Easton

Easton is really doing well. And I am so proud of my niece, she has really surprised all of us. She has truly grown up and is doing a great job taking care of Easton. Easton goes back this week for another xray of his lungs so please pray they are clearing up.
