Youth rafting trip/ the new ward

We have lived here for two and a half years and that entire time we have belonged to the same ward/ church congregation and have watched it grow and grow and grow. We really love and appreciate all the people in our ward as they became family. While we were on our long road trip the ward was split and we were assigned to attend a new ward with all new families where we only knew a very small number of the people. We were devastated to say the least. 

Shortly after we started attending our new ward I could tell that this ward change was inspired and really a good thing for our family.  

The 1st time I started to see what a blessing this was for our family was when Haley went on the youth rafting trip. The youth in the new ward did a big rafting trip down the Rouge river . She has great friends that are just like her and she adores the new bishop. 




Do you see Haley in the middle with the blue rash guard holding a gun to the back of the bishop? Right after I took this photo she soaked him with freezing water. He is very playful and such a good sport. Someone took a photo as she was squirting him and he has it blown up in his office. They all crack up about it, but honestly I did not see the gun before or I would have told her to put it down.
