The boys and I woke up early to meet our friends Jack and Camille to go to a boat race. We discovered there is a whole community dedicated to boat racing, and they are big fans! (Even were drinking beers in honor of the Coors Light finals by 10 a.m.!) We started out in an area that had coloring (boats, of course). Brody and Corey both enjoyed the coloring. We must have been early. Heats started at 8, and we were there by 9. The real racing didn't start until 10:30 or so ...Corey got to "ride" in one of the boats. He pretty much sunk down out of view. The actual driver of the boat (captain?) was a 19-year old girl, and she helped show off the boat to the kids. I think Corey had to sit up a considerable amount to be seen here, but Kyleigh, the driver, said it was a very small space, so he was lucky!
When Corey and Jack get together, inevitably, dancing ensues. They begged me to take a video, and I'll try to post it, because the picture just does not do it justice. Also, they were "posing" in these pictures, and neither Camille nor I could manage to take a "normal" picture. Although, to them, this is "normal."Brody was with us, too, but Camille must have taken the good Brody photos, because I couldn't find any. He loved the boats, though!
Next up for the week... Rob's parents arrive tomorrow, his sister "Crazy" Kristin on Tuesday ... Corey's Finley Farms' Feast on Wednesday afternoon, hockey practice that night, turkey, of course, on Thursday. And who knows? Corey's talked about bowling, shopping (which, to him, means playing at the playground at the mall), ice skating, golf, you name it. They are going to be EXHAUSTED when they return next week!!!
