I am glad you and the kids had fun and arrived home safely. We had so much fun. Chloe had brought 2 friends and all the girls were having so much fun tubing. Marae had the funniest faces and the best funniest wipe outs. |
I would have loved to be with you & your group today. That sounds like a wonderful day & yes...a day that will be remembered forever! Thank You for sharing your day with us. Days like today are what makes the best conversation at the dinner table for years. LOL

First we stopped at Safeway to get doughnuts for the kids. As we were walking to the bakery my purse knocked into a display of wine knocking a bottle off and sending it crashing to the floor where is shattered at my feet spilling it all over my toes. The bottle shattered sending shards of glass one which hit my foot and cut it. Wine hurts in an open wound. Who knew. So, then I had to go tell someone I had been clumsy and ask for a band-aid. They then want to tell management...
Then at the lake we were having fun tubing I noticed that the gas was almost all gone and we were at the other end no where near the marinas. So, we start heading that way. As we enter the cruise way that leads to the marina my boat begins to sputter. I had dropped sped already but dropped it a little more hoping we could make it to Kane's. We didn't. It totally died about 1000 feet from the marina but in a 22 foot speed boat and nothing but a woman and kids it might as well have been a hundred. So, more embarrassment I had to call for the sheriff to come to my rescue. While all the people passed and watched from the marina so close but SO far away from the gas I needed. Oh well. We still had fun the rest of the day. And then the lake I can't believe on one came and asked if you needed any help. |
Definetly a day you and the kids won't forget
|
One of those days you will talk about for a while! Glad you are all home safe! :thumbup: :D
|
You created some funny memories today. Your kids are going to remember this day forever. Thanks for the smiles.
|
So glad you can chuckle about the day and that you enjoyed it, regardless of the little mishaps! Don't you love cell phones???

One time I went grocery shopping with my mom...she reached for an orange on the produce display and sent them all tumbling! As we reached the meat department, she slipped in a puddle of water from a leaking cooler and ripped her pants! I guess the management thought she might sue them (she would never) so they made a big fuss. I was absolutely mortified, being 13 at the time. Twenty-six years later I still remember and laugh! :lol:
|
Sounds like my luck! At least you had fun and you will remember the day! lol
