we took my grandpa's boat out to utah lake today (me, dad, tay, <-- his friend amy, and our cousin brian). my job: back the boat into the water (successful), and then at the end of the day, back the trailer into the water to re-load the boat (failed). i couldn't even back it up out of the parking space and had to walk back in defeat to give my dad the keys. in between those two events we took the boat out for a few hours. the lake was smooth like glass, perfect for skiing!!! i'd like to say that i got up on the first go and that i did something cool, but i'd be lying. i can say that i did get up eventually, but after a few minutes quit it because my arms were dead. lame. tomorrow i'm going to wake up in so much pain, i just know it. we went to in-n-out burger afterwords (thanks dad!), and then all took naps in grandma's basement. extended family all got together for dinner at allaire's house that night which was awesome. too bad i forgot to bring my camera because i really wanted to take pictures of everyone! i love my family. i love having something to belong to and people to belong with. it's the best thing i have going for me right now (and always)!
the drive home from mapleton (allaire's home) was such a great end to the day. we had the windows down and the air was crisp and PERFECT. i loved it. jack johnson, utah summer night, stars, the country.. perfect. life is good:)

I miss grandpa's boat. At least you attempted backing the trailer - I won't - yet. Wish we could have been there for dinner. I really hope Ry gets into the BYU MBA program so we can be closer to the utah county action - someday.
post script - why are you so freakin tan? share some of your skin with me. please.
