big accomplishments

After months (or was it years) of planning, working and collecting materials- Sam has finally finished his canvas canoe. Yesterday was the big launch. All the kids tried it out on the water and nobody sunk. It is truly quite an accomplishment. Bravo to Sam! Go HERE to see video clips, what I was able to take before the camera's batteries died on us. It was a big day and a testament to what can come out of one boy's dreams. (Mothers: despise not small beginnings)Now, if I can just get him in the driver's seat.

In the third picture up from the bottom, Andy looks like he's getting sea sick. LOL
