Sister Fun Love (Featuring Rauchelle)

The kids love having their big sister with them.  Of course things are changed now that Rauchelle is a wife and mother and lives in Portland.  But they still adore her and have embraced her new roles in life.

However, this day in the river was like having some moments of the old Big Sister back.  While baby Marin slept in the van and Gramma kept an ear/eye on her the others went up river to the rapids and played until the current nearly pulled their bottoms off.  They laughed and giggled and splashed one another.

You can tell from the photos Rauchelle enjoyed being Big Sister just as much as the girls enjoyed having her.

Ok, its daughter not sister here, but just had to share what Everette does every time. He likes to just float down the river, his water shoes providing floatation.

Jumping, falling,whatever off the rocks

What would you call that manuevor?

As you can tell, Toveli and Gaelyn were all-over-Rauchelle.  But Mitchell and Maret were there, too, as was Laars off doing his own thing.

Tonnes of love and fun happening.
