Dear Family & Friends,
Hello, how are you? I am doing great. I had camp Tracy this month. We got to sleep overnight which was really fun. I got to do archery, rifle shooting, and other fun activities. our troop made dinner. We had hamburgers. It was great.
On the fourth of July we went up to Brighton ski resort and hiked up to lake Mary. We did it with our cousins. it was fun. After we had breakfast and got ready for the parade.
At the parade we got a lot of candy. I rode my motor scooter in the parade. I gave out candy. it was great.
We had a party on the fourth of July and lit off fireworks. I lit off a bunch. We ate a lot and had a great time.
We went to Lagoon for our first time with our Walker cousins. We rode that cannibal and got to be on the front of the car. It was wicked. Speaking of wicked we went on a ride called wicked. You go vertically up 10 feet then 10 feet vertically down. We went on a fun ride called rocket ride where it takes you up 50 feet or so and then it drops you. The samurai was fun but made me sick you are in a row of seats and it spins you while you are spinning in the row of seats. Our secret was we went in the single riders line and got right onto the ride. Usually you wait in the cannibal line for 2 hours and we got on in 2 minutes. I think it is the best amusement park ever.
I got a pet parakeet also. Her name is sky because her chest looks like a sky full of clouds. She does odd things. She run back and forth on our windowsill chasing cars. She is a funny bird.
We had a family reunion in Lovell, Wyoming With our moms side of the family The first day we went to horseshoe bend lake and took a long boat tour. We saw bighorn sheep in the mountains on the boat tour. After we got back we ate lunch and played at a park.
After lunch we went and swam in the marina. We had ultimate chicken fights which were fun. I almost knocked Brandon off my cousins back. We had fun. We found a spot with lot's of mud and had a mud fight. We got messy but were able to wash off in the marina. After we got back from the lake we played games and went and saw Finding Dory. That day was a blast!
On Friday we went to Billings were our cousins live. We had cousin races. We had a relay race were we would take a spatula and run with and hand it off. We also did and potato sack race. And also used the potato sacks to do three legged races. We had a iron man course with many obstacles. It was fun!
On Saturday we went to porcupine falls. At porcupine falls there was a huge cave that led up to the top of the waterfall And i climbed though it with my cousins Marcus and Audrey. It was so cool.
I jumped of a cliff into the lake. It was freezing but fun. We had a great time at Porcupine Falls.
We did s'mores at Grandpa Pat's house for our last day there. We went to church there and I met new people. It was the best family reunion ever.
I like iron man and marvel comics. I like playing Minecraft with my brothers. I hope you have a great summer. Goodbye.
Love Eric James Barnhisel
