Tubing and Getting stuck:(

We decided to take the kids out tubing for the day and needless to say we spent about 5 hours of it getting us unstuck. It was so miserable. We ended up being stuck twice, Brett once and Michael once. The kids didnt mind it and they had fun but I sat and worried the whole time. I just new that we were going to end up with either a hospital bill from one of the kids hitting the trees because there was no where for them to tube or we would be getting a huge insurance deductible for a damaged truck. I was sure we would hit the tree, and after we were out of that one I just knew that we would end upside down at the bottom of the hill. I will try to post the videos of the truck adventures in another post.
Mason, Dylan, and Garret trying to go down the hill with out hitting the trees. See what I mean.
While we were waiting for the kids to be done Brett has some papers for us to burn.

Trying to go down in a train mode and staying together.


Tobi, Me, and Brittny.



Eaton enjoying his hot chocolate.


Jordyn gives the thumbs up. She loved going down on the tubes.



Caedon, Bailey and Ashlyn. They were actually trying to snow board with the sled. Those crazy kids.

This was after Eli and his brother pushed Cole away from the tree. It was butted up next to it.

I was so worried that they were going to slip and get stuck under the truck or something. I had to just stop watching. Mind you the road was up about 20 feet.

This was just before they came to the rescue and pushed him away from the tree. How do you get right between two trees and not hit either one of them. Oh what a day. Im just glad we all made it home in one piece and nobody was hurt. Thanks mom for taking Brittyn for us. That would have been miserable with her. And thanks everyone else for the "FUN". Next year maybe we can try somewhere else.

I have to say I totally understand, (it really is a Butler thing huh??!!) I'm glad nobody got hurt, and nothing got damaged!!!
