paddle boarding

Monday, January 9, 2012

When the rain lets up like it did yesterday, and the sun is shining & making outdoors hot and gorgeous, you (if you're like us) immediately put on your swimsuit upon waking up and sprint out front onto the beach.
And rent a paddle board for $5.
Have any of you gone paddle boarding before? It is so much fun, and even more so if you can figure out how to go tandem with your 230lb other half. Apparently it couldn't handle us..
it took all of about 30 seconds for us to sink and fall off laughing. 
 secrets out! This is the best place to lay out. It is soo peaceful inside the reef.
this last photo of Cam & Stella after church last night has absolutely nothing to do with paddle boarding.
but cracks me up.
if we're ever blessed with our own bebes, they will learn to play football.
or just act as one.
either way.

  1. My dad used to carry me around in the "Football" pose and believe it or not it was the one "hold" that as a baby it calmed me down! Anyway that's what that last picture reminded me of. Great pictures!
