One last post from when Megan and her family were home visiting...
A Boat Ride and a Bite to Eat!
For years, Mom and Roger have been wanting to rent a pontoon boat and take us all out for a ride... and this year, I think everyone was finally big enough!
We went out on Portage Lakes, and just trolled around. Mom packed us all a picnic and Roger was our Captain for the day - with many little assistant boat-steerers along the way.
And although it was cloudy for most of the day, we were actually pretty lucky. The weather reports made it seem like it would likely be pouring buckets on us at any minute during this trip... but it really only rained for a little bit when we were already on our way back to return the boat anyways!
And then the sun even came out.. just in time for us all to enjoy dinner out, right on the lake, at a nice, casual restaurant.
It was a really fun day, and I was genuinely surprised how well all those little kiddos did!
The Himes Family Portion of the Trip... :)
They were, no doubt, getting a lecture about standing still/not jumping/not leaning over the side/not pushing on the gate/not running/etc/etc/etc... Hahahaha......Mom sucks all the fun out of everything...
Literally the best of 6 shots... my kids are allergic to smiling for the camera, clearly..
All the mini sailors!

Rainy, cloudy, chilly... he never even noticed♥
All the "swimmers" .. lol..
We, however, chose to bypass on the ol' lake water swimming.

And all wrapped up, with a snack, and a sprinkle on the way back.
Didn't seem to phase the Daddies too much.
This silly duo...
And.. out.
So we returned the boat, unloaded, changed the kids, and had a brief trip to the park to make sure everyone was REALLY going to be good and hungry for dinner :)
