"Dont freak out!"

August 12th.

Marks the day when my little group went separate ways for awhile.

Jenna headed to San Diego for the weekend to prep for her mission and go though the TEMPLE!

Doobs is going to the DR

Addi and Bart are headed for Minnesota

Brigham and Casey remain here doin what they do best! haha. I'm sure I'll see them.

We all decided to go out with a bang for the next weeks we won't all be together.

Last Night.
A fun night at Sub Zero ice cream and swimming. No matter where we go the conversations are hilarious! haha. All night the typical group question "So guys what are we going to do??, I don't know what do you want to do?" haha. suggestions from floating the provo at midnight to dollar movies.
Today.
Went to Pantrucas for lunch.
Helped clean up the room, and Jenna Pack.
Floated the Provo River.
Minus  two friends Casey and Jenna. Sad...

We began our journey. As soon as we stepped foot in the FREEZING river we all knew it was going to be an adventure!

6 people. 3 tubes.

Rylie and I were the first to flip our Tube, within the first two minutes in the river we hit tree branches; then watch our tube AND shoes float the river without us. Where were the boys you ask?? already out of sight. the current was pretty fast. Ry and I looked at each other like WHAT NOW?? haha. so we had to walk down the side of the bank to find the boys. Luckily they were waiting for us a ways down with our tube and shoes.

Next to Flip were Alex and Brigham.

They win the

MOST TIMES TO FALL OFF A TUBE

award.

I don't blame them, the tube they were on was meant for one person.

The greatest fall from them and the frequently used comment out of Brigham's mouth was

"Alex don't Freak out! Don't freak out, you'll tip us"

I can't blame Alex for freaking out:

1. the water was cold!

2. there were Rocks all over the place

3. We got pushed to the side all the time,

so you'd be freaking out too

if you saw a HUGE rock in your way.

But everytime they fell off, Brigham got the beating.

Dragged under Addi and Bart's tube.

Cut his foot, bruises on his knees.

He's a warrior.

The last time they flipped, you could tell Brigham wasn't going to give in and give up. he launched himself onto my tube and bart's and held for dear life, then all of a sudden Bart grabs his Shorts and Tries to pull him up, with Alex pulling Brig's arms. Great team effort and Picture! haha.

 

 We all played a part to help each other. There was one point where we tried to keep away from the bank so we would turn the other persons tube or push off from the sides, I can't describe it but after awhile we got the hang of it.

Here is a video of the adventure after Brigham's great fall. The audio is hard to hear because its Windy.

A really sad thing that happened aside from all the injuries...

I LOST MY LEFT SHOE! :(

They'd fallen off 3 times on the trip. each time saved by the boys. But the 4th time they weren't so lucky...Lesson learned. No flip flops when you float the river! haha.

First time doing it what can I say! haha.
