A Day At The Boat House

We went to my parents house for a day on the Columbia River. We had a great BBQ lunch, fed the ducks, tried fishing, and went out on the boat. It was a beautiful sunny day!


Maddie and Papa Madison and Bryan fishing....no luck today.

Ducklings and their Mama. My Mom told me these little guys were born in a planter/pot on a neighbors deck. The mama duck sat on those eggs the entire time, right on the planter, until they hatched.


Grandma, Maddie and Peyton


Levi, Josh, and Peyton went on the "tube" on the back of the boat. I can't believe how brave Peyton was. She surprised us all.

Porter joined us on the boat and did really well... he was a little hot being black. We just dipped a towel in the river and wet him down.


Madison didn't go in the water this time. She helped to drive the boat.

Hello dear family - When do you return to classroom Lindsey?
What grade does Maddie go in this year. Also does Peyton go to preschool or kindergarten?
Hope you are still having summer fun. Love & Hugs, Gram BL Sargent
