Cabin with the Henwoods

My cousin Whitney came to visit while I was in Idaho. We made a quick day trip to the cabin together. I think the temperature was in the high 70s so the kids were very timid about getting in the freezing river water. By the end of the afternoon, though, all the big kids had ventured in. This picture was taken right before Izzy lost her footing and started floating downstream. None of the adults had bathing suits on and were reluctant to jump in to save her. Eventually I was able to get the canoe paddled over to her to grab onto. She was pretty upset about floating away, but it was kind of hard not to laugh because Callum, her older brother, was standing right next to her waist deep in the water saying, "just put your feet down Izzy!" She said she was trying to keep her flip flops on her feet and couldn't keep them on and stand up with the water pulling them away. I was just glad she had the life jacket on, even though she is a very good swimmer.

Twin cousins.
