We decided to take advantage of one of the fun things Boise has to offer this summer and go white water rafting. I must admit that Rick was the one pushing it, and I was rather nervous, I am not necessarily adventurous by any means. So we went and it was a blast! My mom stayed home with Carson, Brynnli, and Kate, bless her heart, and had quite the time herself! Thanks mom!
One of the fun things to do is to "ride bull" by sitting on the front of the raft when it goes through the rapids. I sucked it up and was the first one to do it, it was really exhilerating!
We all got a turn to do it!
Chris and Rick went together, the two of them and Ryan were at eachother the whole time throwing eachother in the cold water, along with the rest of us occasionally. It really was a good time. 
Three days after we got to Boise (before our family rafting trip) Rick went with my brother Ryan on a three day High adventure trip with the Boys Scouts and our church. They had a great time and got to do some rafting that was a little more adventurous and in some VERY cold water I"m told. Rick was so excited that he got to go with Ryan. He has been trying to go on our high adventure trip with our ward here and has even planned a couple, but hasn't been able to get off of work. This worked out perfectly!
My brother is so fun, we loved spending time with him this trip, and Rick especially had a great time with him, what a great kid.
As you can see, they are wearing helmets, and we are not above on our family trip, so this was a little more hard core:) I"m glad they got it out of their systems so we could do the less hard core trip as a family.
