Tuesday: Tyrel's mom threw him a block party. Justin and I manned the giant inflatable slide so that the little kids wouldn't get out of control. They also had a climbing wall, jumping pin, snow cones and cotton candy.
Wednesday: The wedding!
They got married in the Bountiful temple and the sealing was beautiful.
I cried. Haha. Afterwards we watched them take pictures on the temple grounds. 
The rest of the day we lounged and went to their reception that night.Thursday: Scott and Briley flew up from Phoenix. Justin met Scott on his mission in Brasil and Briley is Scott's girlfriend. After work they picked me up in Park City and we drove to Jackson Hole where we all crashed after a long day of travel.
Friday-Sunday: Justin guided the rafts 3 times as we ran the Snake River. He's a pretty studly guide in my opinion. It's the cyclist farmer tan that makes him so hot without a shirt on.
Lunch counter is a baby rapid now and Big Kahuna is HUGE. We discovered that the best boats to hit the rapids are the smaller more gooshy ones so here is a huge hit on the red one.
Once when the people on our boat wouldn't paddle so we got stuck on a rock I got thrown to the middle of the boat with three other people on top me. I incurred a slight injury.
At one point it got way cold, started to rain and we had to pull over to wait for another boat to pass. After 20 minutes it was miserable.
Between river trips we roasted marshmallows, played cards and Jeff (Tyrel's dad) made about 10 different dutch oven cobblers.
I never realized how much I love cobbler. Listen to the insanity of these varieties: peach, blackberry peach, cherry peach, rhubarb, apple, cherry and a bunch of others. The 60 of us on the trip went nuts. Especially since most of us were young starving students. 
The night before we left we went into Jackson and got candy at Yippy-I-O and dinner at the Bunnery. 
The next day we left in the morning as the clouds had rolled in and a mist settled on the river. That night had been creepy because everybody but the 4 of us left leaving the group campground empty and quiet. Every little noise freaked us out. But after a prayer and getting ready for the night we calmed down and slept through the cold night. It probably got into the high 30s that night. Well, that's the end of our 3rd trip to Jackson this year.
I had to wait for Justin for three hours. Yay. 
Here he is crossing the finish line! 
I just love a man covered in spandex bearing his bare chest. So hot. Check out his hair in this picture. 
The sweat had plastered his hair in the shape of his helmet. This is our car, Giselle, by the way. Justin named her after the Brasilian supermodel because he thinks our black Subi with tinted windows is super sexy. I actually do too. 
And here he is, with bloodshot eyes, digging into a Cafe Rio salad after riding 6 hours straight. Good job babe!
Here is an example of bribery with sugar. I told Quinn if she was good I would take her out for a muffin and juice. So here we are at Starbucks while Grayson and Luke were sweating away at mountain biking camp. 
Another thing the kids and I love to do are little hikes. Even though Quinn is always jumping at the chance the hike, she's usually the one complaining about how hot or hard it is. The boys are awesome hikers and here we are throwing rocks into a stream on a trail between Jeremy Ranch and East Canyon. 
Sometimes we do lunch at the park. It's great for me because I can usually sit back and chill while the kids find little playmates. I just have to make sure the boys don't climb on everything because they're literally fearless.
And this week I brought over sugar cookie dough with food coloring and white frosting. They went nuts. Here is Luke with his "worm" cookie. 
Quinn of course wanted to make pink frosting for her cookies. 
Grayson thought it would be funny to make brown vanilla frosting to trick his dad into thinking it was chocolate.
