*sniff* Is Summer REALLY Over???

I'm not sure how or when it happened, but all of a sudden it's back to school time! We even had temperatures in the low 70's today making it REALLY feel like summer is leaving and fall is right around the corner. But while the weather was hot we managed to fit a few more fun activities with the kids. Our ward's youth planned a trip to the Rexburg temple, and to Lava Hot Springs. It was a perfect day for Lava. There weren't many people there, because many of the schools were already in session, and although the day started out kind of cloudy, it ended up hot and beautiful. McKay, like the crazy, dare-devil he is, jumped off the 3rd platform, and acted like it was no big deal at all, which gave the young men in our ward a slight complex. Rik also jumped off the third platform, which gave me a complex, because he landed wrong and about knocked himself out. He told me the other day that he finally feels like he might not need x-rays.... but maybe some chiropractic work! Crazy boys!





(This must be Anaya's new favorite pose, because she was doing this in a lot of the pictures!)


We also got one more float trip in. This is the second time we floated to Rigby Lake this summer. SO much fun!!

It was super hot and sunny that day!


About half way through, there is a rope and slide. The kids spent a long time swinging and sliding into the water before floating the rest of the way.



They spent the rest of the evening playing in the water and sand at Rigby Lake.
