This year at the lake, Grandpa Jim let all the little girls - Sally, Elizabeth, Annie and Payton - drive the boat. They were so excited and so ... fast. They got a few turns and at first they were a little tentative, speeding up slowly (except for Elizabeth who gunned it the whole time having learned her speed lessons from her mom). But after a few turns they were all speeding around the lake, doing zig zag turns and probably causing other boaters to mutter under their breath, "who the hell's driving that boat? A 5 year old?" Um ... yes, actually. Even cute Payton took a turn(with her big sister's help, of course). Next year the little girls will probably be old enough to go tubing with the big kids!
