Salt River Float

So we decided to take the family and float down Salt River again this year. We did it last year around this same time and it was awesome! There were probably 10 other people total besides us on the river last year. We practically had it all to ourselves and we loved it. Well, it was not the same experience this year. Every frat guy and sorority girl plus their crazy friends and relatives were on the river! Wow! It was nuts. I won't go it to detail but we got ears-full and eyes-full of Babylon! Fortunately, everyone besides us got off at point 4 where the buses picked them up. We continued floating to point 5 by ourselves. During this time, I talked with Tim about how I felt like we had just passed through the telestial and terrestrial kingdoms and that now we were the only ones "floating" through to the celestial kingdom. All of us made it through and we were all sealed together (tied together with ropes) and it was beatiful and peaceful.

Makenna floating down Slat River. We called her "Baby Moses". She was buckled into her car seat which was held into the center of the tube with bungee cords. She floated that way for over 5 hours and never let out a peep! She loved it!



Me with some sick aviators and my "Just Say No" hat that I won at our Jackson family reunion auction last year. Awesome!



The whole clan.



Sweet Kaitlyn Belle.
