Georgia on My Mind...

Several months ago I got a call from my Uncle Jess asking me if I was available to come out to Georgia to meet up with him, my aunt & cousins to go white water rafting in July for my cousin Lizzie's 21st B-Day and my Aunt & Uncle's 25th Anniversary. However, there was one catch...my coming would be a suprise gift to Lizzie. What?!?! Me?...a GIFT? Seriously, God has a sense of humor. In Maui I was humbled to receive and now I was humbled with the idea of being a gift. Crazy! But, lets be honest I received much on this trip...it was a gift to be with my family and share such great adventures together. I had SO much fun with them...from white water-rafting, to rubber band gun fights, to sitting out on the deck enjoying conversation, to laughing ALOT, and much more...I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to be with them. Here are a few fun pics from the trip!

View from the deck of our cabin! We were hidden away on the top of a mountain surrounded by GREEN!!! It was beautiful.

Aunt Renee and I out on the deck.

Lean! Lean! Lean! What you don't see in this pic is that Wayne (front right) & Lizzie fell out right after this. Our guide asked Lizzie, since it was her B-Day, if she wanted "Original Recipe" or "Extra Crispy" and she chose "Extra Crispy" which meant it was highly unlikely her and Wayne would stay in the raft. So fun & so funny!

The looks of determination to conquer the next rapid!

Conquered but got a little wet. ;)

Uncle Jess (right front), waiting in anticipation for the next rapid.

Aunt Renee (front left), maybe a little scared? Not quite sure! :)

Anticipation over!

Paddle! Paddle! Paddle!

Extra Crispy once again. We were heading for one of the last big rapids of the day in which our guide headed us right towards "Launch Pad" (a rock in the middle of the rapid)...see next pictures for the results.

Awesome!

These are just a few pics from my trip...you can check out my facebook in a few days and see the rest of the pics.
