Yesterday we went down to Lava Hot Springs with my mom's side of the family and had a good time. We rented a double tube and ended up taking it down the river 7 times. I went with Michael, then Celeste (my sister) and Molli, and with Hannah. Robert and I went down together once as well. The hardest part is getting in and then getting out when you are supposed to. Robert went down with Hannah, and Michael twice. He tipped over on all three of those times. Michael thought it was great, and I guess Hannah didn't mind too much because she went again with me. I bruised up my behind pretty good, and Robert bruised his leg. On his last ride down, Robert was with Michael and they had two pretty good spills and unfortunately Robert lost his spare pair of glasses (luckily they were his spare) and, not realizing until this morning, he also lost his wedding ring. I know he feels bad about that. I told him now we get to go wedding ring shopping. He wasn't thrilled about that either. He said, "Well, life goes on," and I told him that is very true. They weren't in danger of losing their lives on the river, but I am glad it was only his wedding ring and not his life. (I also told him better his than my ring, his was less expensive).
I will post some pictures of us coming down the river later.
My sister, Celeste, called us when we were about half an hour from home and told us that her car broke down on the side of the freeway. There was nothing much we could do at this point but give her a few phone numbers. I felt bad for her, but I knew it would all turn out.
In another post I mentioned I would show a video of Evan learning to crawl so here it is.
