Boating Day (August 2017)

We are so seriously grateful for amazing friends!! There are many many fantastic people in our lives who are always thinking of others and trying to do good and be good.

Two of those such people (yep, the two on the boat!) were sweet enough to sacrifice a good part of their day to take our family on an end-of-summer boating activity.

We are officially boating amateurs, but had a super fun time tubing and attempting to wake board;).

It was yet another perfect summer day!

And despite a bit of motion sickness ...

It was a wonderful outing!!

Not to mention exhilarating!!

Joseph was definitely pleased with his first (hmm, maybe second) official boating experience.

And Kev and I were definitely not complaining with all the amazing sunshine and fresh lake air.

Neither were these goofs!

Baby Joseph

Another little miracle, Joseph Benjamin Dueck , arrived in our family September 5 th , 2010 at 3:23pm. Of course, every mom describes the birth of her children as miraculous--I know, I feel that way about each of mine--but in this case Joseph's healthy arrival really did turn out to be something of a miracle. But before I get into the story, I have some catching up to do since I haven't blogged at all about this pregnancy. So ... Here's me on the first day of school which was just two days before Joseph was born. Since I was taking pictures of the kids, James decided I needed one as well. I'm actually glad he did, because I had been meaning to get a picture of my baby "bump" for days if not weeks and hadn't gotten around to it. Of course, I thought I still had plenty of time to make it happen. And just very quickly, I have to throw out some highlights from this pregnancy which for some reason all have to do with Mae ... Mae telling me (during the first tri...
