Shelby's First Tube Ride on the Lake!

It's not a big secret that Brad and I are big lake people.
He grew up going to the lake and I grew up part of my life living on the lake in Arkansas.
 
Getting Shelby acclimated to being on the water has and is a big priority for both of us.
Last year at 7, 8 and 9-months old she did pretty well but this year we both knew we wanted to get her more use to it.
 
His parents have a tube that pulls behind the boat that allows to people to sit inside and Saturday we decided to take it for a whirl.
 
She did awesome!!
No tears or fear for this little girl who will be 18-months this week.
She got right in like it was no big deal.
Off we went!
I had my hand on her life jacket the entire time.
She really is fearless.
She kept trying to climb on the back of the tube to touch the water in the back.


My FIL pulled us on their pontoon.
I know I post a lot of videos on here of Shelby, but this one really does deserve. 
Pretty impressive for 18-months especially giving just a few weeks ago she freaked out over Winnie the Pooh!!
Check it out, and here's to more lake days and riding in a tube!

That's so good that she has no fear of the water...well I guess as long as she has that lifejacket on. I grew up on a boat and wouldn't trade those memories for the world!

Look at her!!! Wow, that's amazing. James is no where near this fearless (which I'm glad for). Looks like lots of fun!
