Colton's dream has finally come true! He is a VERY proud owner of a new bass boat. This is something that he has wanted since he was born (I swear he came out of the womb with a fishing pole in his hand!) and it's all I've been hearing about the past 6 1/2 years that we've been together. When we finally sat down and discussed it (about four months ago) and were able to afford it he immediately began looking. He was constantly on craigslist and boat trader looking for a bass boat. But everything that came up was either too far away, too expensive etc. and the ones that did come up in our price range and in our area someone had already got their hands on before us. So about two weeks ago this boat came up and it was exactly what he had been looking for and only about an hour away. But of course when he called the guy about it someone was already going to be looking at it and test driving it that day but he said that Colton was next in line if the guy didn't go through with it and that he would call him that evening if that did happen. That evening came...and no call. He was so disappointed and almost gave up looking completely because this had happened so many times. But that next day we were in church and all of a sudden he grabs his pocket and rushes outside. Then he comes back in and sits down, when we get out he asks if I'm ready to go get a boat. The guy didn't go through with it so it was his if he wanted it! He was beyond happy.
This is my new favorite picture! And can you believe this is when she was running a 104.5 fever?! I had literally taken her temperature and then come outside to tell Colton, it was so strange. But they look so ready to just go lol! I don't even have a picture of the boat because it's always covered up at home and when we go somewhere I never think to take a picture.
These crack me up. We were in College Station and Colton had asked me to pick up some stuff for the boat from Academy. I saw these little kid sunglasses and just couldn't resist. I probably looked like a moron standing in the main aisle trying on every pair of glasses on my baby and then laughing at her. And the funny thing is is that she loved it! She didn't fuss or try to pull away at all. Then when I decided I wanted the pink ones I just left them on her and was pushing her around the store with them on and she wasn't phased at all, it was so flippin cute!
Even her teacher put her sunglasses on her at school and sent me a picture! Right now she doesn't mind anything on her, glasses (apparently), bows, hats, earrings...but who knows, in a couple of months I'm sure I won't be able to put any of those things on her :(
