Of course, Xander had to have the red canoe and the red paddle ...

And he took off (only his second time in a kayak) ...

Big brother was learning for the first time (and struggled to keep up with speedy little brother) ...

Beautiful horse farm views along the creek ...

Finally getting the hang of it and happier ...

Ready to turn back ...

We lasted a little over two hours, which is pretty impressive for Xander ...

Mommy loves being on the water, so it was a good day.
