the party boat at sunset

After eating crab legs at the Blue Heron Friday evening,
some friends surprised us at the dock.
They came to pick us up in their boat
which I immediately dubbed "the party boat."
Along for the ride was "Tank" the family dog.
So after that wonderful dinner
we set off on a boat ride to watch the sun go down.

Way after the sun set
we were still going
and it was getting darker and darker.
at one point Eli stated...
"We are running out of time."

After Captain Phil assured all
that it was safe
to be in the middle of the Chicahominy River
in the pitch black,
we settled back to enjoy the ride.

Can't remember when I've had as much fun.

I love surprises...
call them unexpected blessings.
Thank you Lord for family and friends.
