Drive a Boat!


As Kara's matron of honor, I had the responsibility of throwing a fabulous party for a girl who does it for a living. The pressure was on and I wanted to make it great!

I had 9 of Kara's closest girlfriends up to my grandparents cottage in Lake Geneva. We had a lot of fun, but I think the highlight was when I got to take everyone out on a pontoon boat.


I have never driven a boat and I was pretty nervous! It was so much fun! We had the music cranked up and all of the girls were dancing and partying. I loved being the 'captain', but I'm not gonna lie.... we had a couple of close calls where I panicked and 3 men from nearby boats had to manually grab our boat and get us moving in the right direction.... whoops! I've also learned my lesson about having people jump out for a 'quick dip' in the middle of the water when I don't know if they're strong swimmers! Luckily everyone was safe and had a blast!



It was an awesome experience! I'd definitely do it again!
