Boat ride with the boys

 Our neighbors (and wonderful friends) sold their house and bought a new construction home down in Canby. Cannon, their boy, is Matthew's age and the two of them have been the best of friends for the past 6 years. During this past year with the pandemic they seriously spent at least 5 days a week hanging out, sometimes more. It has been a hard transition for them both, as they miss each other terribly. 

The McKendry's have had some issues with their new home and their possession date keeps getting pushed back, so they been having to stay with friends and family. Because of that, Cannon has actually been staying with us a few days a week since they left the neighborhood. Cannon is a great kid and we love having an "extra son" around whenever we can have him. They boys have thoroughly enjoyed their time together.


He spent the last few days here with us and we decided to go out on the boat tonight. Evelyn got her 2nd dose of the COVID vaccine and wasn't feeling up to going, so we just took the boys and we had a fun time. It was too chilly for the tube but we went up and down the river and saw lots of things. 




Why, yes... that IS me. Driving. A boat!! I need to learn how to drive and just as I though, it is totally different than driving a car and I know I will have a steep learning curve. 😂



We saw deer and racoons and lots of birds, too. We live in such a beautiful place!

A lovely night on the water for sure!!
