More Boats, Please!




I had really been looking forward to Tuesday--the first summer concert of the year at the town docks. (We frequented this series last year with the kids and it was great; Jameson ran around and danced, we attempted to feed him picnic dinners, and we spent some nice quality time with my Grandma who really enjoyed showing the kids off.

That was back when Madelyn was still in the sling and Jameson was still in his hitting phase, so I'm really looking forward to her being able to dance and for him to have fun without getting put in time out every ten minutes.) So, I had us all packed up, dinner and all when Bob got home at 6:00.

Unfortunately, the weather had other plans and we found out when we arrived that the concert had been canceled. Jameson was bummed because I told him earlier that there would be music and friends, so we sat and watched the HUGE clouds passing by and all the boats racing back to the dock before the storm and ate our dinner.

Bob hopped out for a few minutes and took some pictures of the clouds. It was actually a pretty spectacular site and I'd say that we had just as much fun watching boats as we would have watching a band. After each one passed, the kids would both yell "More boats, please!" as if we could control the ebb and flow of the town docks. I'm pretty certain that they think I have super powers and can make just about anything appear--milk, peanut butter and jelly, the bathroom...
