Beach Time!

One of our favorite things about summer time is going to the lake!

Right behind the bush in the picture below is a rock...Monday while we were at the lake we started hearing a girl screaming at the top of her lungs "help!!" the rock is about the place she nearly drown. For about 30 seconds we couldn't decide if they were kids playing or if someone was really in the need of help. My mom decided to call 911. There was a guy in a kayak (spelling?), not in the same party but near the girl passed out in the water (her friend was the one screaming help), he got to her so quickly. As soon as he got to her he yelled "call 911" then we saw him start doing chest compressions, we knew it was serious. Matt and Jordan took off running as fast as they could to help. Matt got there and helped give breaths while Jordan helped pull the kayak and girl out of the water. I guess after about a minute of cpr she started breathing it took her about 10 mins before she barely responded. It was sooo scary waiting and waiting for the emergency vechicles, luckily though, the man in the kayak doing cpr was a RN! What a miracle! We also Witnessed the beautiful power of the priesthood and the rewards of the faith of a youth. After the paramedics took her, her friend was so distraught that

She couldn't gain her composure. So Breanne (my sister) suggested a priesthood blessing. The girl came over and our family surrounded her for privacy. Matt gave her a beautiful blessing of peace and a knowledge that she had done the right things to save her friend and that her friend would heal. I could feel the Spirit so strong and I could feel peace come over this girl who had never had a blessing or even knew about blessings before. It was amazing!!! I am grateful for the heroic boys that got their kayaks to the girl. I am grateful for the fast response of Matt and Jordan. I am grateful for Breanne's knowledge that the one thing to help the most was our Heavenly Father. And.. I am grateful to my Heavenly Father. (The underlined words are words of my mom..I copied them! But I feel exactly the same way and I don't think I would have been able to express my feelings like I would want to, she said it perfectly!)

So, Breanne comforted and befriended the friend of the girl that almost drown. Breanne got an update that the girl was released from the hospital! Yay!!

Besides all fo that scary stuff we had sooo much fun at the lake Monday. Tanning, swimming, playing, talking, roasting hot dogs and eating smores! Sooo Fun!

Look how cute that little swim suit is!

4th of July we went swimming! I didn't want Cate in the water or the sun but me and Gramma thought it would be so fun to put her in her cute little bathing suit ~ It was fun....Cate didn't like it so much. I dipped her toes in the water and she folded her lower lip and quickly cried! She hated that cold water on her feet!
