Hinton Class Lake Trip



We are blessed to be a part of an amazing Sunday School class.  Each year, our class takes a trip to the lake in Pell City.  The house is owned by the parents of one of our good friends.  We always have fun.  Last year was Sarah's first year to go.  Obviously, she didn't do anything last year and wondered why were we stuffing her into a life jacket and dragging her onto a boat.  This year was totally different!  She really enjoyed it.  There are several kids in our class who are all very close in age, so she is used to being around them and playing.  She still wasn't 100% sure of riding on the boat, but once it got going and she could feel the spray and the wind on her face, I think she enjoyed it.  Also, we found out that she likes Cheetos!  haha

Also, Michael was able to drive the boat this year.  Our friend owns a fishing boat that they always use to pull people who want to ski.  Michael has a boating license, so this year he was able to drive the boat and give Keith a break and let him play in the water instead of having to drive the boat!
Here is a picture of us on the boat.  We really did have a great time!!!

We switched life jackets at the end and Sarah was so much happier in this one because she wasn't so enclosed and confined.  She is a good little fish!  Thank you Stephens and Garmons for letting us come to the lake.  We would love to come back soon!!!
