Family Reunion

On the 23rd of July, we went to the Jones Family Reunion in Rupert. All of the Aunt & Uncles and cousins came for a total of 53 people from the Gordon Jones Family! We all brought our campers and our water toys for four fun filled days at the Snake River.

I have to admit when Richard & Betty mentioned playing on the river, I picture the Snake River here and how fast and extremely cold it is, however, down there it was 71 degrees and fairly slow. We had so much fun tubing, watching the kids play, and even watching the adults try to out do each other. Blaine was wake boarding and actually did a 180! I don't I don't know who was more suprised Blaine or I.

Sam tried his hand at kneeboarding and also waterskiing. He did a great job on both and even threw in a little bit of cockiness into it. He was kneeboarding with his hands in the air and trying to jump out of the wake on the trainer skiis. That's my boy!

I was having a great time tubing with everyone until as I was trying to get out of the intertube onto the boat, it went out from underneath me and I slammed down onto the boat, breaking three ribs. It's almost been month and the little suckers still hurt! It seems no matter what I do, clumsiness still prevails!
