ryders first lake trip

so kris and i are officially boat owners! we had to test it out this last saturday to make sure everything works awesome and sure enough it did! we are so stoked for all the new adventures to come.. i grew up boating and it is seriously one of my favorite past times!

Ryder did soooo good for being on the boat the first time and being 14 weeks old! at one point he was getting kinda frustrated because the sun was so bright but that was cured! we ended up being out there for 6 hours!!! lol we did some fishing and just cruised around!

here are some fun pics of the day!!

but first off look at this adorable life jacket we bought him at bass pro!! so bute!

my parents came and they just had a blast!

 he was rockin some pretty cool shades--such a stud

mini dad

 im so glad my dad and kris are best buds.

ryders blessing::ryder turns 3 months old

Ryder finally got his baby blessing by his dad on 3.4.14, and it was beautiful. such a awesome day to have family and friends come to be there for our little ryder!! of course in the middle of sacrament meeting he started to do the "here comes a poop face" and boy did he release a stinker! haha so that was nice to clean up as he is in this clean pretty white suit! lol

Anyways, here are some cute pics from that day!

after party! :)

this was right after everyone left...his first real laugh was with grandpa and grandma townsend outside when we were saying bye and dad was being goofy!!

we had to of course try it again later that night!! haha
