Floating El Provo!!!

For the 4th of July, we decided to get the families together and float the Provo river. Sydney and I did it last year with a few of them, but we got both gangs together and braved the rapids.

This picture is a gem. My first encounter with the FREEZING water.

It was tons of tons of fun, and Jim brought his waterproof camera!

The water was definitely high and fast this year. Did I mention freezing? The "rapids" were sweet, the current was swift, & the Bridge of Death was no match for our bravery (all but Adam and my Father, who were sucked under!).

Please enjoy the following video. It's pretty intense.

It was a pretty good 4th of July. We spent the rest of the afternoon at Grandma Audrey's watching the parades and having a delicious meal. We ended the day with fireworks and went to bed. Needless to say that Syd and I were tired. We had driven down from Logan the night before, and got to South Jordan around midnight. We then stayed up talking with Adam, Merrick, and Tanner till around 2:30am. Sleep is good.
