It's been a few summers since we've been on the Fraley boat due to having a newborn last summer, and I can't remember what was going on the summer before that (2006). So we were very excited to take Ashton out for his first time on the boat.
Yesterday we met up with Tim at Lake Perris, which is only about 15-20 minutes from our new house. The last time I was at Lake Perris was when Chuck and I first started dating back in 2000. We've been water skiing MANY times since then obviously, just not at that lake. It was so nice and convenient for us to be that close.
We had a great time out on the boat, and afterwards we hit up the races at the Perris Auto Speedway. We have been hesitant in the past whether or not to take Ashton to the races because it's SO loud, but that kid isn't afraid of anything. So we gave it a shot. He loved it! Both places. The lake and the races. We can't wait to go back.
I don't always stick the pacifier in his mouth throughout the whole day. But since he was in a new and potentially scary environment, I'll shove that thing in anytime, as long as it keeps him calm.
Ashton wanted to be in charge of holding up the orange flag when someone was in the water.
Tim wake boarding.
Ten minutes after we got on the boat, Ashton passed out in my lap. That's what we get for taking him out during nap time. I think the vibrations from the boat put him to sleep. That kid can sleep through anything.
Water boy.
Hey Grandpa, we have a new driver for the boat!!
The RACES!!!
He loved the races, but he HATED when we tried to cover his ears to mask some of the noise. So we gave up.

We just had dinner out with your Mom on Thursday night, and she didn't mention anything about you going to Paris, so I was a bit taken back by your blog title, but soon learned that your quick wit was at work! Enjoyed the adorable "Paris-Perris" photos as well as the car races. It's so neat hearing about all the activities so close by to you in your new home. We are hoping to move out to Corona in the next few months, too.
He's so cute at the races! I love is clapping!!! =)
