Last week we had an incredible time at Young Life's family camp (Trail West) in Colorado! It was truly a week of adventure for our (adventure-challenged) family. We rode horses, hiked up to the continental divide, (some of us - not me) conquered our fear of heights by completing a high ropes course, and we went white water rafting on the Arkansas River. Here is a great photo of our family riding the rapids (that's Murphy, our guide in the middle - and his first name is Murphy, not his last - and he told us he was in fact named after the family dog - ha!). We had a blast - until we were drenched in a 33 degree rain shower, which made the melted-mountain-snow river seem much warmer! It was definitely an adventure we are all proud to say we experienced together.
I will post more photos later. And pray that I can figure out how to post a video. We were so proud of Jay going thru the ropes course despite his extreme fear of heights and I'd like to get it on my blog here.

happy friday my friend! i'll be with you in less than a month! 40th bday present in hand! get excited!
it looks like everyone is having a ton of fun. except for james, he looks like he is going to cry
James was actually sick that day with a stomach flu and held on thru sheer will-power so his eldest son wouldn't have an excuse to back out of the adventure. I'm sure he'll be pleased you noticed, Chris!
