Little Laker

What a wonderful day! We spent our Saturday on beautiful Lake Murray with my brother and dad. It was an extremely hot day, 95 degrees, so we decided to go on the lake in the late afternoon. Owen experienced his very first boat ride, which he really seemed to enjoy. He didn't even seem to mind the life jacket too much, which is surprising especially when you see what it looked like on him! We found a great little island that had tons of shade and we grilled out and Owen just chilled with us the entire time. He is such a great sport and just really enjoys being around people and especially seems to enjoy the outdoors. Since we went out later, we were able to see the famous Purple Martins that roost on one particular island on the lake. It was really cool, thousands of them end up flying together above the island right around dusk. Thanks Uncle Matt for providing such a fantastic day!

Sorry the pictures are out of order, I realized this after I already uploaded...
