On the Monday after the 4th of July, we decided to take Anna on her first Kayaking adventure. We thought it would be better to take her to a lake to start rather then the river so we went to Rickett's Glen State Park and kayaked on Lake Jean. It was an enjoyable day with great weather and after we finished at the lake (we kayaked for about 2 hours) we walked around for a short bit. The only thing that Anna did not like AT ALL was her life vest. She tolerated it for a while but then started to get upset with having it on. I don't really blame her. Even though it is an infant vest and is her size, it is really long so she could not really bend to sit very comfortably. She was fine for a while, but once she had enough she let us know it. Of course we had to wait until we paddled all the way back to the dock to take the vest off which took some time and she was really mad by then. As soon as we took the vest off though she was fine and enjoyed the rest of the time at the park.

All packed up and ready to go. I don't know how we will eventually get a third kayak on the truck in a couple of years.

Poor peanut in her uncomfortable life vest.
She liked holding on to the paddle and patting the sides of the boat with her hands.
