Kylee & Marcus Nov 2008

Our Friend Mary took some pictures of Kylee, Marcus & Kari. Was thanksgiving day. We were at my brothers house. We had great day being with family, eating, more eating, talking, watching football & talking with all our family and Friends. Kylee was dressed so cute that Mary went and got her camera stuff and came back and she took lots of pictures. About 100 and it took her along time because Kylee wouldn't cooperate. Imagine that. LOL She just wanted to go to the pond. That's all she wanted. So we ran after her and got what we could. Most of them turned out great. Finally Marcus the bro came out and he got her to smile alot. She just didn't want to smile. So we got pictures and that is so great. Thanks so much Mary.

Our raft had Kari, Noel, Catrina, Marcus, Jacobi and Ron on it. Jacobi was our guide. We got stuck on rocks 6 times. wasn't to fun to try and get loose. We at one point got out of raft over along the side of the river and went and warmed up by a fire they had built for the people going down the river. That was nice to have that. Warmed us up so we could finsh. When we were finished the rain stopped and the sun started to come out. Oh well we still had alot of fun.
