MOONLIGHT KAYAKING!

Eli has some pretty cool Deacons leaders and this week Brother Justin Owens planned for them to do a late night under the moon light kayaking trip down the river. Eli was nervous to go thinking it was going to be white water rapids, on the way there Jared explained it's only the Salt River and no rapids what so ever! His nervousness then turned to excitement! We dropped him off at 4:45pm and then this kid comes strolling in the door at 11:30pm! He had a great time with his friends. He said his feet hurt when they got out for dinner and I asked him how that was possible when he had water shoes, but then he says he just doesnt know how but when his kayak flipped over and he got knocked in the water the shoes magically disappeared...I guess they disappear when they aren't on your actual feet!! Oh Eli. Did I mention he also came home with out a swimsuit and swim shirt?! This kid! He'll learn. I don't even care about the loss of the items, I am just glad he was able to spend time with church friends since he always seems to miss out on mutual. Love these bonding and memory making moments!
