Sailing, Sailing, Into the Ocean Blue...

A last minute decision, we decided to run into Saint Joseph to see my parents. Jaclyn called at 4 and said she and Dan were running home. We decided to tag along. Even Joseph came home for the weekend! It was great to have us all home! Friday we enjoyed and relaxed at home with everyone. Zoe had a blast staying up late and not getting a bath. So much for our routine :)

Saturday we decided to try sailing! Both Kent and I were nervous but decided that there will never be a "good" first time when we are more relaxed so we gave it a shot. It was a beautiful day, almost 90 degrees, and a nice breeze. I used the Bijorn to get Zoe onto the boat, which I have to say was the most nerve-racking part of the trip. Going from a dock onto the boat was crazy! Luckily it went well. Zoe had to stay down below to stay out of the sun. I didn't know that baby sunscreen shouldn't be used until they are at least 6 months old! Not that she should be in the sun all day, but gheesh! I sat down below with her and Jaclyn and we headed out on Lake Michigan! We sailed all afternoon and Zoe did great! AJ stayed down below the entire time and I got to sneak up and get some sun. It was great to be out on the boat! Hopefully she will like the water as much as we do :)

We spent Saturday evening eating and enjoying being home. It was so nice to have everyone home together! Sunday we all had to leave to get back home, but it was a wonderful weekend in St. Joe!
