Lake Wedowee and the Boat

At the lake, we had to put on life jackets; all the people under 18 had to wear a life jacket. I'm sure, Mom, that you are over 18, but I had to wear Lola's when we were in the boat. The boys jumped out of the boat, but not the girls, we didn't want to get our faces wet. We rode on a tube. It was so fun. When the boat went fast we bumped up really high. In the front of the boat, water would splash up and hit us. It was really funny.

Rhett or Matt drove the boat. Drake, Dawson, Delaney, Wyatt, Lola, Grampa, Nana, Aunt Dale, Grandmother, Jenny, Kara, Randy, and Dustin all rode on the boat. Randy and Dustin all came for a little while. All the big boys went fishing.

A Day with Lola and Grampa

On Friday, Lola, Grampa, and I went to McDonalds. We all had hot cakes. Grampa drank coffee, just like I knew he would. Lola had strawberry juice, and I had my usual.... all the drinks mixed up. Yum. Then we went to CVS where we bought silly bands. Then we went to the park where we got to play for a long time. The best part was getting wet. They had a little froggy; you had to put water in it and then it would squirt water out. The frog is on top of the red pool with sprayers on the side. We were hungry after playing so we drove around looking for donuts. We ended up at Publix. We got plain donuts with plain icing. Then we went to Dollar General and bought me a toothbrush. Lola and I both got dollies. We walked all the way back to Publix where the car was parked and drove home. We went swimming in Aunt Dale's pool which was as big as a sofa. Not the sofa upstairs in our house, but like the one downstairs. A normal size.

Kayaking

My name is Katie Beth. I am on a boat today. It is going to be really funny because we have been out for a whole hour. And I see these really cool boats over there. Mom, you gotta put it over there. See 'em. Now, back to me. And. Um. There is a nest over there. Just look at it. Momma, look at it. And it is gonna be so awesome. When this goes off, we are about to be done. And there this thing that we are gonna get on. And Anna came with me. We saw some dolphins. And a manatee. And birds. So many birds. And I saw a frog and crabs. It was so awesome. Mom saw a big bird. It was so pretty. We didn't even fall out of the boats once.

The End

What Happens on Sanibel. We Talk About All Week!

I saw a place called Keylime Bistro. It is a restaurant that is so funny--it is like keylime pie, but a restaurant. Yesterday we went fishing. Momma caught a shark, and I got to touch it. It was so crazy. It was hard on the top and soft on the bottom. We caught lots of fish like bass. I got to reel them up. I didn't have my own rod. There was a lady finger fish in the bait box.... it had lots of spots. I got to throw it over the side and release it back into ocean. I saw a sting ray, dolphin, and fancy birds.

After fishing, we went to the pool and swam. Then played in the ocean. I ate a huge banana split for dinner. It was so big. I didn't need supper. It seemed to be 2 feet tall.

Later today we are going kayaking.
