out on the water

post by leslie

And I'm back! Sorry for the quiet week -- I was slammed, and the blog took the hit. I've been keeping up on my shoots, but also doing some long-term planning that takes a lot of thought, time and energy. Such projects include mapping out a new website (meetings! research! digging through old photos!) and taking loads of video courses which hurt my brain in an entirely different way.The point is, I promise I'm not lazing about reading novels and sipping lemonade at the pool. Although that sure sounds nice...For today's blog post, I wanted to show you Ezra's latest adventure. We all headed down to the lake last night for a picnic and to hear the orchestra play. We invited some friends, and when we arrived they told us they were members of the sailing club and loved to sail.Record scratch.Ezra has been begging us for about 2 years to please "buy a sailboat" so he could go sailing on the lake. We just told him he needed to find richer parents or friends to make that happen, as we were not making sailing a priority.So you can imagine our delight at learning we suddenly had a sailboat connection! And they were super excited and took Ezra out on the water maybe 30 minutes later! Thank goodness I had my camera on hand so I could capture this moment.
