Our Week Of Water...

There is sure to be excitement whenever Katie Thomas is in town. There is something that happens within us that allows for the laughter to happen no matter what. Jenny said it best..."We need to be around you more often cause no matter what we say, you laugh and we then think that we are the funniest people EVER!!!"

Heather decided that we needed to float down the Provo River with her. She has done it a million times and was not worried at all that those of us who had never done it before, would have a hard time. (let's not forget that with me, its like having half of a body!!!)

It's safe to say that I will probably NEVER do this again! It was so hard to figure out if it was better to be on my stomach or to be sitting up, though flexible enough (or to not feel it enough) to be squashed together? You have NO IDEA how many looks that I was getting! "How is she doing that???"

So this is where Thomas and Jenny decided that they had had enough and that they were going to hike it down the rest of the way. Yeah. But their flip flops had been lost in the river so they were going to try it barefoot. Yeah.

Needless to say, this is what they looked like when they ended up. Notice the popped raft that they ripped apart into shoes? Uh. Yeah.

Off to the Thomas residence for some rest and relaxation...

...until she once again made me laugh which caused me to have a near drowning incident?

Yes. She is laughing as I am choking up a lung.

The next day poor Kindra had to be crushed by my chair as we were up to go for a ride. When we've got everything in the car, this is how it goes down!

Seriously look at that view of Timp Mtn???

Playing at the pool...

Can I just tell you how much my kids love Thomas??? No really. They understand why it is that we call her Thomas because of the whole "Katie" thing but they don't call her Thomas. No. They call her "Katie Thomas". "Katie Thomas...? Katie Thomas...? Katie Thomas...?" So funny!

They also know that when you hear that "whistle" that she's got goin on with her being a teacher and all, that you DO and NOW!!! She won't put up with any of the crap that I might put up with. NO lie...

Kindra loves the stairs at ANY pool because the railing is her favorite spot to do tricks and all sorts of maneuvers with her legs! "Mom. Mom! Look at this!"

Don't worry. Our water adventures for this year are not over yet!
