24th of July Celebration

We have decided the best place to go for the 24th of July celebration is good ol' St. Anthony Idaho. I am a little late getting these pictures up; but better late than never.

It may seem by looking at this photo that we had a horrible time floating the river. In reality, after getting over the slime and the cold big water, we all had a very nice time. Once the crying stopped all we had to listen to was the sound of the water and little voices blaming one another for getting the other wet first. At least there wasn't crying added to the fighting.


The rodeo was a favorite for everyone!! Joseph and Miriam even did the calf chase. I thought for sure they would be tippy toeing through the dirt; but they got right in there and Joseph got so close to getting some money off the cow. I don't think I have ever seen him move so fast. Money is a great motivator!!

Candy is also a great motivator!!!!
