Mackenzie & I came down to visit my parents this past weekend through Wednesday (we leave Wed to head to the beach for the 4th with the McKay grandparents! Fun week!!). So, on Saturday, my dad took us all down to the coast for Mackenzie's first ride in his boat. It was only a moderate success..... Between the loud motor, fast boat, and uncomfortable life vest, she wasn't too into it. We decided after about 10 or so minutes that she wasn't going to get into it and headed back to the dock. Then, when we got closer, we slowed down & when we got real close to the docks, we took off her vest. She enjoyed that! If it moves slowly & she didn't have the vest on, it was fun! Then, we anchored the boat a bit out from the dock and let her dip into the water off the back of the boat. She liked that too :) We're working up to enjoying actually a decent boat ride next time!
Taking off.....bye bye dock!
Enjoying a snack now that the boat has slowed down! (Mommy had to wear a life vest to encourage her to wear hers......didn't really work all that well! She still wanted hers off!!)
Dipping her feet in the water
She enjoyed riding in the cart of our stuff to the car as much as the boat I think :)
