Angela likes to party, she had the week off and has defiantly made the most of it. She has been busy playing and soaking up the last bit of summer. She even penciled me in for a few fun activities. She brought the kids up and we floated the narrows. They showed up in their swim suits and left in their swim suits, honestly I don't even know if they changed out of them to sleep.
I wish I could have recorded the entire adventure. Jake was so excited when we first got there he really wanted some big rapids. On our way we passed the rapids we would float through and as I put him in the water I asked him if he was excited; he replied, "Ah Sheesh I'm totally Freaked". The first two miles were slow. I think the kids were kind of thinking it was anticlimactic until we hit the last two miles, they were wild. The kids were so scared you would have thought we were on the most difficult White Water River in the U.S. and series of unfortunate events left most of us with enormous bruises, scrapes, and cuts. In hindsight minus the lingering pain I think we had fun.
We got out of the river and drove to watch Dean Team Brand. He took 2nd, good job babe.
The next morning we packed a lunch and left for Bear Lake.
Trig kept attacking Josie and I just love his face, he is so pleased.Laurel came for the last little while. Everybody helped with this life size ice cream cone until Ang took over for the finishing touches. I told someone to lay by it to prove its size and these three mocking did some modeling poses.

Last hurrah? Speak for yourself, I still got a few more days;) Want to go swimming?
I love the picture of Jake. He has great teeth. I think the Ballards have lived in their swimming suits, I think they did every thing but MID NIGHT SWIMMING, that should be their goal to do before school.
Awesome nails, and icecream cone.
Way to go Trig, you go give Josie a run for her money.
So. Sad we were too busy to come! Looks so fun!
I hope you save some fun enthusiasm for next summer. I want to be part of that. Love the adventures you share. Mom
