This video makes me very happy, but also lets me know how much further I still have to go. I would not get in the kayak last year when we first got them because I was afraid I would not fit or if I tipped it in the lake, would not be able to get back in.

This is the first time I was in the kayak and it was a lot of fun. It also shows that I still have a lot of weight to lose. The funny thing is that right after my sister Sarah turned off the camera I tipped the boat and ended up flat on my back in a foot of water. We all laughed so hard and my nephews thought it was the funniest thing they had seen in a long time. It was a much needed laugh on a long weekend.

P.S. My nephews are pretty loud and pretty dramatic.
