Kayaking Boerne Lake

I decided last Wednesday that it had been too long since I had taken the boys out to do something fun.  Lately my adventures have been happening when they are at their Dad's house....  So, while Hyrum was at school I loaded up the kayaks so that when he got off the bus he would be surprised and we would be ready to take off.  The afternoon couldn't have gone smoother and we had a lot of fun!  We were out on the water at sunset and TinTin fell asleep as we drove home at 5:45 and didn't want up until the following morning.  Best idea I have had in a long time.
This was Kaden & Quinten's first time out in the kayaks.  I have taken Hyrum a few times by himself.
Quinten after all his begging to go kayaking was not his fearless self and was actually scared being out there.  I don't think it helped that Hyrum told him and Kaden about sharks and piranas on the drive out there.
Hyrum & Kaden figured out how to go out together.  Hyrum with a full length paddle and Kaden with a half paddle.

The smiles and images from this day are forever engrained in my memory.  The boys were so appreciative and said thank you so much.  They knew that I was taking time away from studying for finals to make this fun afternoon possible!
