River tubing @ Zions!!

Last Thursday we headed back up to Zion National Park to go tubing down the river.  This time Makayla, Jaxon, Mya, Kande, Grandma, Keaton, and even Nate were able to go with us.  I made Nate take the day off because the kids wanted to do it with their dad so much, they had felt bad that he had to work the last time we went.  We set up beach, had a picnic, blew up all of the tubes, caught tadpoles, and headed down the river.  Brekken and Traevn were brave enough to give it a try this time. 

And of course my mom, Makayla, me, Brynlei, and Peyton stayed behind because the two little ones didn't want to go and neither did Makayla.  We made our tube train for Peyton and Brynlei to ride on and eventually even got Makayla to try it out.  We had so much fun and cannot wait until we can get up there again, except this time I am going to finally go down the river and take all the kids (with Nate helping of course:))!!!!  Thanks again everybody for such an awesome day!!!  

*Word to the wise:  Apply sunscreen!!! Nate was the only one who didn't get to put any on and came home with a lobster red belly!! Ouch!!!
