Waves & Watermelon

Sorry there's been no new posts in awhile. I've not been feeling very posty lately but I'm back. We've been on a few more trips since the last post but it seems like I haven't had the camera for any of them. Our latest trip was a rafting trip with the youth. Jared is a Boy Scout leader and they invited (reluctantly) the young women along on the trip. They needed some YW leaders so I went. Reagan stayed over at Grandma and Grandpa's house which was such a nice little break. We went up just outside Leavenworth and rafted down the Wenatchee. The river was awesome but super cold. They had snow and ice a few days before we went so we all had to wear wetsuits and splash guard jackets to keep warm. Our boat was great because somehow (???) we ended up with all adults. Not that we don't have great youth in our ward, but holy cow... we're we really that obnoxious when we were their age? Jared and I were even able to spend some quality time together in Leavenworth before we went home. I love Leavenworth. It's this cute little bavarian town with all these shops and they pipe out German music through the streets. It's very Disney-esque. We had a nice walk through the town, eating pretzels and fudge and looking at all the trinkets. It was really just nice to spend some time alone with my husband where we could talk. We don't get that a lot and I'm so grateful for that time we had.
Also, summer has FINALLY arrived here in Washington! It's been so nice and we're even busting out the pool at my parents house soon. I'm exctied to take Reagan swimming since she's loved it the few times she's already been. We're even wearing shorts and sandals!! Here's some cute pics of Reagan eating watermelon. It's so messy but she loves it. We also get to enjoy a nice cool bathtub in the sink afterward.

Awww....little Reagan eating watermelon! Tell her it's my favorite, and I'll share a piece with her anytime :-)

Ooooh, and I looove (wow that's a lot of o's) Leavenworth! I went there once for the Christmas festival one year and I've never forgotten it! I would love to go again!

Hope your summer is going great so far Leavitt family *hugs*

Reagan is an absolute doll! I'll have to come by sometime before I leave and meet her in person!
