Here are a few photos that the dealer took of us. We took our boat out on Saturday and tried to sink it. The heater core had been frozen from not winterizing it correctly, then sending it up from Abilene TX to Casper WY. The Bilge Pump was not working quite right and so it was filling up and not draining that well. We made it a short trip to make certain that we stayed afloat. I also found that I need to get a tool kit together with a few fittings for it for the next trip out in case we have some other type of incident. It ran very well. We all had a great time. I just wish that we could have spent a bit more time out on the water. I was glad that the owner of the shop was with us to give us a little tutorial on all the mechanics of the boat. Kim drove it a bit and actually was the one to pull it up on the trailer. She did a stellar job and parked it right in the middle. I am excited to slip the wet suit on and give it a try.
We celebrated my Birthday yesterday. We had a great time. I got some really cool stuff from my family. They are really nice to me. I got a new guitar. It is a Gibson SJ-200 and it sounds phenomenal. Kim is a wonderful person and I couldn't ask for a more beautiful, wonderful, loving wife than her. Beckett sent me a "I am a fan of Beckett shirt" and I would like you to note the shirt that I chose for Orange Crushes Maiden Voyage. Way to go Beckett, You are a Stud.
I think that the girls are excited to have school finish and get to the summer vacationing. Our trampoline had a little run-in with the Wyoming wind and I think that the wind won almost bending it in half. I guess that is why people take the netting off of it for the winter. We sort of got is working again and the girls have been out there every day ever since. They love to jump, hurt each other, hit each other and cry and scream a lot. At least it is outside.

ya so you all look like a happy family & the boat...wowza, BUT you seem to be missing a lovely lil girl. Stop whatever you are doing now and find Dansie!!!
Beckett told me (by biting me hard three times on the shoulder) that he is so proud to have influenced such a historic event. He wants to make sure, though that his name is not associated with the leaky boat because he feels like he as been blamed lately for lots of leaky diapers and he does not want to get a reputation! He is a bit of a biting prodigy. He can say a lot through biting...
Awesome boat Luke! I'm sure you guys had a lot of fun with it this summer.The only problem is that the summer goes way too fast.
