The kids have decided that they love to raft! The little green raft from my childhood (aka Fish Hunter) has been resurrected this summer. I have spent many hours at Cottonwood Lake with friends and dates on this raft. It is very strange to watch my three kids paddle around in it. After a few instructions from Grandpa Benton, Gabe and Raygen went around and around the reservoir in it. Gabe thinks he is the captain and loves giving commands to his little sister. When she doesn't listen to him, a riot breaks out onboard. It is really hilarious to watch. It has been a good way to teach them to cooperate. When they argue, they just go around in circles but when they work together, they are able to get where they want to go. Ridge loves to ride in the raft too, but it is hard to keep him in it. He is always wanting to bail out to swim. They even talked Grandma Lynda into going for a ride with them! We have had a lot of fun and will spend our last day of summer vacation enjoying the water and the sun.
