Dolphins!

Grant and crew showed up at the house today just as Mike and I were about to pull out with the boat for a day on the water. We decided to let the Nelson boys (Kevin, Grant, and Jacob) come along for a bit. We launched the boat at the bridge (which had just one parking spot left!), and rode around the island for a while. Before we dropped off the Nelsons at the dock at the end of our road we saw a couple of different schools of dolphins that made the two young ones very happy! We circled around for a few minutes and Grant turned down Kevin's offer to throw him in to swim with the dolphins, but I think Jacob would have taken him up on it.

Joely, That sounds so fun. I'm sure you all enjoyed it! I can't wait to go for a ride around the island soon. I especially can't wait to see you in less than a week!

Leah- that is a little bit of a scary thing! I will be surprised if Carter can top Jake! He's got "activity level" pretty well topped out! I am believing that Carter will be more in keeping with Brady and Jackson... lets hope so, it's always a challenge just to keep Jacob safe!

If fate decrees that Carter be... more so, then we will have a great time containing him! Ho ho ho!

Leah, we will see you tomorrow after Grant's chemo- after lunch sometime. Love you!
