"Fight the current!" | amee's Blog

     I know from some of my other blogs, it may seem like I don't get along with my brothers and sisters, but I do. Everyone gets along with their brothers and sisters. In my family I am the close to my sister Christina we are close in age by a few months.

      Well threw out these past few months we have been saving up our money to buy a blow up raft. Well it took several baby sitting jobs and dog walking's for our neighbors. Ok, well I babysat and Christina walked a few dogs. But hey we saved enough to get a small raft.

        The first day we took our raft we call Randy the Raft, (we are silly girls) lol:) We were out on and having a great time, it was smooth sailing, because the lake we live by wasn't wavy at all. There was no other boats out and we were having fun just sailing. Except Christina thought that a fish was going to hop in the boat and attack her, she is afraid of fish so am I but only of the big ones. Lol:)~

         I was at the front of the raft and Hayden was at the back and we were paddling and Christina sat in the middle, I noticed that Hayden was trying to get my attention so I turned and looked at her. "What?" I said not talking but using my mouth, make since? OK moving on. Air talk! Thats it! lol:) She read my lips.  "Let's flip her out." She said. I squinted my eyes and said. "No." She rolled her eyes, then tried to push Christina and I both out of the raft. So then Christina and I both used our muscle's and pushed her out.

         Hayden Screamed as she fell into the water. Hayden and I didn't see her come back up. "Oh my GOD! What if a shark ate her?!?!?!"  Christina cried. "Hayden I'm coming in for you!" Christina said sticking her foot in. "Wait, Christina thats retarded this is a lake not salt water. Sharks live in salt water dumb dumb." I said pulling her back into the raft. "Oh I knew that." She said fixing her hair. "Oh Amee, your so smart." She said. "Yeah it helps to liston to that, in first grade!" I said to her. "Huh?"She asked. I looked at her then sighed.

         I rolled my eyes and then her and I looked over the edge and looked threw the water and only saw bubbles. "Hayden?" Christina asked. Then Hayden popped up from the water and screamed. Christina and I jumped back in the raft and screamed then Christina wrapped her arms around me. "Get off!" I said. Then Hayden pulled herself back in the raft.

         I looked at her and she looked like she had been attacked by a monster. "Hayden what happened?" I looked at her eyes she had mascara dripping from her face and her hair was frizzing up like mad crazy. "What is the matter with you two?!?! Why would you push me in?" She asked.

          Christina pointed at me. "Uh! You helped to!" I said. "Psst...." Christina called me down to her. She whispered in my ear. "Shes looks likes the little girl from the exorcist..." She giggled. I laughed and we hit our knuckles together. Hayden kept yelling at us as we rowed back to shore. It was funny!

           About two days later Christina and I took the boat out again with Hayden. This time Hayden didn't mind getting wet, we were jumping off the dock and swimming and having a great time.  Then we took the boat out, only this time it was all fun and games. The waves picked up, there were people out on jet ski's and boats that made really big waves and it was windy.  We drifted out to far for a raft. Then out raft tipped and we tried to row our way back and couldn't make it.

          So we got out and pushed out way back but that was so hard, the current kept pushing us back. It was crazy. When we finally got back to shore, we laid on land to catch our breath then Hayden let the wind take our Raft down and it floated even father out. "Oh Great!" Hayden said standing up.

           Then a guy on older guy on his boat stopped and grabbed the raft and brought it back to us. Thank Gah! We didn't have to swim back out and get it. I was so sore the next day from kicking in the water so hard.
