Nash Family Journey: Lots of fun!

OK so I haven't posted in a while. We have had a lot going on around here but whats new. Since school started I feel like I can't get anything done. Here are some things that are going on.

Since I posted last Jay and I celebrated our birthdays, we both had great days. For my birthday since it was on a Sat. we went and hung out at the creek with the Kovacs'. And for Jay's it was on a Thursday so he had to work. But after work he took the kids to bear hole to swim and then Becky was in town so she came over for dinner.

We also had Church in the park and a church picnic after because it was the 5Th Sunday (We always do something a little different for the 5Th Sunday service).

We have another exchange student with us. His name is Kichisuke he is 23 and from Japan. He will only be here for about 3 weeks. He is not going to school here but he is here on vacation. We are really enjoying having him hang out with our family. He will be here until the 19Th of Sept.

We also were able to do another family trip this time to the Russian River. My parents treated it like our birthday weekend so we didn't have to cook or anything it was very nice. We had a great time.

I had to put this picture on here we dog sat for some friends. This is how we found the dogs asleep. Best Buds, So cute!

The Russian River

Nature hike at the Russian River

Kichisuke's first time on a kayak

I can't believe how big he is getting.

We tubed and kayaked for about a mile down the river. There were some rapids which made it both fun and challenging. It was supposed to take us about 1 1/2 hours but it took us a bit longer. Breandan even went with us and he flipped twice in the kayak with Jay. What a trooper though.
