Our church got together and we went white water rafting down the Natahala river in North Carolina. We had about 80 people show. Adults clear down to 7 year olds. women and men. Youth, kids, friends and families. What fun we had. It was awful cold. the temp was probably high 70s . it was cloudy and it rained on us. The water was so cold. Our feet were numb. 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.
Hillary's first high school dance. She went with her boyfriend Josh Compton. He seemed to be new at this but it was his senior year. They met up with friends and went to Ruby Tuesdays to eat then back to school for the dance. They all looked so nice. They had alot of fun.
