Minnesota Part 2–“Go Fast”

Being from the land of 10,000 lakes, Mo(m) grew up on a boat. When we got to Nee Nee and Pop’s house, there was the tiniest little lifejacket waiting there, so that we could take Ava out on the boat.
Ava was excited about it just sitting in the driveway….

After seeing and reading about boats in her books, Ava finally got to go on one. She loved feeling the wind in her hair…

And liked that Pops was a good driver (with Nee Nee as the backseat driver).

Ava did insist that since there are no pedals, she technically could drive the boat….

Ava and Pops liked the water…

The next time we went out, Ava’s first words were “go fast” – she was definitely enthralled with the fast boat and the wind in her hair. Before we took off, Ava posed with Uncle John.

And clowning around…

Here’s Marcy, John, Ava, and Mo checking out a sailboat across the lake.

We did have plenty of fun on land too. The nearby school had more swings, which was perfect for a 3 generation photo…

After all that fun, it was clear that we have big boots to fill for entertainment….or is it Ava that has big boots to fill?
