Nope, not a April Fool's joke...


..we got a boat!!! Yippee!!!! Bob has been searching for months and we have driven all over Missouri looking for just the right boat. It looks like we have found it. It's well kept, will work for fishing or skiing/tubing. AND....it was well within what we had budgeted for it!

Bob and I both love the water. He can fish all day. I can fish/read/swim/tube all day. We have friends and family who like the water, too. We are very excited about our new addition.

We have been doing Dave Ramsey budgeting for the last three years and such luxuries have NOT been in the budget. While we have a tiny bit more to go on Baby Step #2, we decided to take a breather and invest in something we will both enjoy for years to come.
