Flaming Gorge-July 2014

We LOVE Flaming Gorge!  We had so much fun!  This is another trip we would like to make a tradition out of.  We went to Flaming Gorge 2 years ago for the first time.  We went again this year and it was such a blast!  We all stayed in a house together that my parents rented for the weekend. We rented a motorboat and went knee boarding, water skiing, and jumped off some of the red cliffs into the lake.  We were nervous about how Ivy would do on the boat because she would have to wear a big puffy life jacket the whole time, but she did great!  She even fell asleep in our arms while on the boat. :) We jumped off a few cliffs, which was really fun.  Well, Andrew and Darian jumped off a few cliffs, I only jumped off one. :) We also went water skiing and knee boarding.  Andrew had a goal to complete a 360 on the knee board and he did it!  He was also able to go in and out of the wake on the skiis. He is pretty athletic. :)

 The next day we rented rafts and went river rafting down the Green River.  It is such a fun river.  Very smooth, with just a couple of little rapids to keep things fun. :)  We played games every night and had a lot of fun together.  Flaming Gorge is so beautiful.  We were surrounded by tall, red rock cliffs while boating and when we were rafting.  I am excited to go again!
