Picnic on the Eno

We took advantage of the beautiful weather and holiday weekend to take a picnic to the Eno River today after church. The boys enjoyed wading in the water, catching frogs in their net, throwing rocks, etc. We also saw that canoes were being rented at a reasonable price, so they were thrilled to take their first canoe ride! The water was very calm and a nice breeze blew, so it was pleasant out on the water. We took turns since we only wanted to rent one canoe, and 15 min. of the hour rented was enough for me (Amanda). We'll probably all have sore arms and shoulders tomorrow from rowing (okay, Brent and I will, the boys probably won't feel a thing in their young arms!). The beauty of God's creation is truly awesome and we are thankful for the chance to get out and enjoy it.
