River rats!

 With the 100 degree days that we have been having, we decided to hit the river one Friday night.  It's kind of crazy how warm the water temperature is now.

 Brayden steering his passengers around in the boat that Kent had as a kid.  The thing is so old, but in such good condition.  I don't know how it hasn't dry rotted after all these years.  But that's my husband for you, keeping everything neat and orderly.  I love it!

 

These pictures were taken right before Ellie came over to me, where I was standing on the beach and said, "I have to go potty."

Me being the lazy mom (and apparently dirty mom) that I am, said, "Do you want to walk ALL the way to the bathroom, or just go in the water?"

E:  "How do I go in the water?"  With a look of amazement on her face. 

Are you kidding me?  So somewhat sarcastically I said, "You go in the water and  you tinkle through  your swimsuit.  Make sure you leave your bottoms on!"

She scurries off and I proceed to put my camera away, and check my blood sugar, when I look up, not even two minutes later, to see Ellie standing on the shore, toes barely in the water, legs spread hip width apart with a steady yellow stream gushing out.

Oh my, oh  my, oh my god!  "ELLIE!"  (Thinking, I can't believe she is doing this, I can't believe I wasn't more clear, I can't believe there are two women standing five feet away from her pointing and chuckling.  I don't think I want to draw more attention to her.  I really hope she doesn't come back here to talk to me.  I really hope she goes directly out to swim....
