Weekend in Enemy Territory II: Anchors Aweigh!

So we tried to take the boat out again for Carson's graduation celebration.


Tommy got a little stir crazy on the way down. Yes, he said, "I don't want to smile" at the end there.

 He brought his brand new surf hat from Target to wear on the boat!

He got to be co-captain of the boat with Grandpa.

What a beautiful day it was! 

Party yacht selfie!

 We spent most of our time swimming and playing in the water.

We also went down the slide.  Yes, Tommy went down this huge slide off the top level... with Dada of course.  He didn't know what he was getting into.  When he went underwater, that was the end of the slide.  He refused to go down it again.  I should have known and taken a picture the first time.  Oh well. I'll always have the look on his face when he came out of the water ingrained in my memory! He was PISSED! 

But Brandon, Lilli, Isabel, Desi, Andrew, and Carson went down the slide without any fear.  Am I missing anyone? 

Especially Brandon!

Brandon decided to get REALLY brave and tried to jump off the end of the slide.  I will preface this video by saying it never worked out for him.  In fact, this video should be titled "Hey Y'all, Watch Dis!" I can only post this video after finding out he was fine!

He was a little sore but no official injuries.  Yikes.  BRUTAL.

More party yacht selfies! I've learned that if I don't take pics of myself, I won't be in any pictures.  So get used to selfies, folks. :-)

Tommy didn't take a nap that day so he was a bit tired.  Grandma had him totally set up and almost convinced to go to sleep.  Didn't happen though.  Imagine that.  

Watch out! Tommy's taking over the captain's chair! 

Notice Tommy is without his hat? Yep, he threw it in the water when we were headed back to the dock.  It quickly sunk and was never to be seen again.  Tommy was pretty upset to lose his hat (when he so joyously discarded it into the water).  Oh well, we *might* go back to Target one day to pick out another one. We shall see! 

Random story: We pulled up to the dock when we were done for the day.  While we were cleaning up the boat, Lilli did some quick fishing with the fishing pole that someone brought.  It was not 3 minutes and she had caught a fish! What the heck? How awesome! She was so excited!

The Party Yacht was a huge success! We had a wonderful time.  Thanks Bickleys for planning such a fun day. Happy Graduation Carson!
