The Color Blue The Color Pink
I read this beautiful children's book about a mother and her 2 sons and how she loved them each differently. And she compared them each to a different color, so as I went to write in their journals today about them (which I had been neglecting to do for too long) I changed my mind and decided to write these poems instead, as a way to express my love for them. :)
The Color Blue
I love Eli like the color blue. Like a clear blue stream, clean, flowing, small and a little rocky.
Like a warm sunny day and a warm blue night, like the smell of warm bread and maple syrup.
I love him like a soft blue blanket nuzzled under my chin and a silly baby monkey or a cute faithful puppy, watching, growing and loving.
I love him like a deep fresh breath, expanding my lungs, giving me life and filling me with peace and love.
The Color Pink
I love Laya like the color pink. Like a pink fluttery butterfly floating past me, free and happy.
Or a rainbow, shining, bright and beautiful through a sky of tears or a kind, good friend showing mercy to the lonely.
I love her like the color purple mixed with heus of red, blue, orange and yellow as I glimpse the setting sun.
I love her like a strong warm heartbeat giving me life and meaning.

4th of July @ Jackson Hole
Some family members decided they wanted to do a family rafting trip over the 4th of July! Tyler and I are so glad we decided to go! What a fun trip! Unfortunately, I only took picture of us when we weren't rafting, but I will try to steal pictures from other family memebers....

The roots don't go down very far
Darrin will cut this one up and use it for winter firewood - it is in Vaunn's backyard - well, sort of
Wyoming Rafting Trip
Saturday, July 3rd. First run of the day on the big raft.Big Raft: This was the one run that Gil went on. We assured him that he wouldn't even really get wet, but it turned out to be the most exciting run of the whole trip. Check out Mark falling off the front - that started all of the chaos.
