So it has been a while since my last post -we have been super busy. School started (I don't feel I need to say anymore about that I think you can figure it out on your own). We see Tim usually on Friday's and occasionally we get to see him every other weekend not his month though :( Other than that he is in school, working, and doing clinical's at the hospital. While I am working all day and chasing Ian all night. However last weekend we were able to finally get away for a day. My parents took Ian (thanks!) and Tim and I headed with our friends up to Jackson to go rafting.
Front: Troy & Tim (they are about to get very very wet)
Second: Lex & Ann (Lex was safe but Ann -not so much)
Third: Jeanette & Erin (All smiles)
Forth: Nancy & Brian (battling out boat captain)
Front: Craig & Emma (again about to get very wet)
Rowing: Jeff (I am not sure how he rowed the whole time it made me tired just watching)
Back: ME (nice and dry the whole time -don't worry I got wet on the second run down)
I have never been white water rafting and I'll admit I was a little nervous. Now I think it is funny that I was nervous at all. It was a blast! We left at 5:30 in the morning and drove to Jackson (about 3 hours away) We headed down the river early in the morning and it was pretty cold. Luckily Erin that was super prepared and had warm clothes for us to use. Thanks!
The first ride down was quite entertaining. Let just say Tim & Ann got wet -very very wet!!!

Don't worry -it looks like we lost Ann in Big Kahuna but she made back into the boat safe and sound.
We ate lunch in the parking lot and enjoyed the sun for a moment.
On our second trip down the Snake River we saw a bald eagle.

Hit every rapid if I must say perfectly!
Tim even went down in the ducky and never fell out -even on Big Kahuna.
We jumped off some cliffs (by "we" I mean Tim, Nick, and Jeff) it was a little too cold.
This is Nick jumping.
And unfortunately all good things must come to an end.
We had such a great time with everyone and loved rafting. Thanks to my family for watching Ian. And thanks to the Thompson's and their family for inviting us to come along and getting all the gear. We had so much fun and can't wait to go again!

Looks like so much fun! I love rafting and Jackson. What a nice getaway for a day.
Oh man what an awesome vacation! I am jealous, glad you and Tim could get some time together! Hope things get less busy for you guys, and that a good schedule will start.
