the boat nightmare...

So, our first trip on the boat.. don't worry it wasn't a 3 hour tour.. it was more like 3 minute ride. Poor Monty.. he had his BFF come down and it was supposed to be a fun family day.
Putting the boat in the water.. yay!

Unhooking the boat??

that is one happy boat owner!

bye bye dock! Don't worry we'll be back soon!

Erin, Dana, Peter-Leo, Kody and Tia enjoying the ride.

Even Everrett (Monty's BFF-best friend forever) enjoying life on the boat!
 Here is when things go wrong...


The ever vigilent marine, aka Roger, and Monty.. both agree something isn't right.
 The boys noticed a funny smell.. something wasn't right.. so the cut the engine and checked the engine. It was bad.. not sure what exactly the issue was.. but we slowly motored back to the dock.

Roger, standing guard with the fire extingusher .. just in case..
 We did make it back to the dock without any fires or additional problems. So the boys stayed behind and worked on the engine.. and the rest of us... we went to the beach!

Peter-Leo dug a large hole!

While we were sad to not be able to go to Cumberland Island on the boat, we were super excited to see the Prostrollos and Chriswells.  We have missed them and it was great to have them here for the weekend.. even though one of the dogs chewed a hole in Roger's favorite jacket. hee-hee!

Tag! You're It!
