Independence Day Fun!
HAPPY 4th Of JULY, now that it is long gone, just thought I would share some of our holiday adventures. For the 4th this year we packed our bags and headed to the beautiful COLORADO MOUNTAINS 
While we were there, we went JEEPING, something I had never done for real before (actually in the mountains on a jeep trail) pretty stinking fun. My parents, Ryan, & Tayler were in one jeep, and Skyler and I were in another. Preston was even able to join in on the fun from the backseat of our jeep. He must of thought we were ROCKING him to sleep, not ROCK climbing; he tried to sleep through the whole ride. Don’t ask me how he did that. I could hardly stay in my seat with my belt on. We had a blast, hopefully we can do it again with the whole family. I know my older brothers would LOVE it. I would just make sure they're not driving the jeep that I’m in. 
After jeeping, we made our way into the water. We stayed in a cabin in South Fork right on the river so we drove about 20 miles upstream and KAYAKED back to the cabin. Skyler and I were in the same kayak. We thought we were pretty cool stuff until the current smashed us into a giant rock and tipped us. We laughed pretty hard after we finally got ourselves out of the water and back into the kayak. A little farther down stream, we saw an older gentleman on the bank trying to untangle his fishing line from a tree. When we floated passed, he looked up at us and as he did he lost his footing and TUMBLED into the river yelling. I wasn’t sure what to do, feel bad or laugh my head off. At the moment I was pretty sad for the man, but as we slowly floated away that’s when I lost it. I just couldn’t stop laughing. Very mean I know, but I couldn’t help myself. We packed a few more adventures into our trip, and ended it all with an annual FIREWORK show. We loved every minute of our outdoor adventures and spending time with the family. I mean how much more FUN can you have in just one weekend.
