Funnity Fun Fun!

For almost 30 years, our local Symphony has had a big fundraiser where they held a contemporary music concert, outdoors, on the banks of a local "lake" that we have here.  While being on the shore, spread out on a picnic blanket, was always fun, I have always wanted to see the concert from a boat.  There are lots of folks that do that, and it always seemed like such a cool thing.



Well, I'm here to tell you that it IS.  A cool thing, that is.  We attended via watercraft on Friday night and it was a blast!  My dad and mom took us out on their boat.  We ate supper out there and enjoyed the concert.  Because there were some fantastic fireworks at the end of the concert, we were out there until about 9pm.  The kids did great staying up way past their bedtime!  Yay for the boat!  :-)  I'm thinking of decking it out with Christmas lights next year.  heehee.  I'm sure that will just thrill my Dad to NO end.

The Captain and the Kid

The Captain and the other Kid, who is actually old enough to listen to the Captain.

My baby.  And his baby.  ;-)

Poodle's opinion of the evening!

Poodle took some pictures while the sun was setting behind us.

And she shall be our Squishy.  And she shall be our very own.

The sun set leaving behind pinks and oranges to thrill all the little girls in attendance.

The baby took a short nap, but couldn't stay asleep for long.  There was playing to be done.  And sea legs to be developed.

The boats' running lights came on as the skies grew indigo.  The hillside was full of happy kids and grown-ups.  The music was wonderful and the breeze was heavenly!

A nice couple, enjoying the evening just above their decorated boat.  Didn't know them, but I like their enthusiasm.  Made me want to play copycat next year!
