In the 4th grade, students learn about Idaho History. Being that we live at the mouth of the great Hell's Canyon, Lewiston student get to fund raise the whole school year to take an all day boat trip up the Snake River. Trenton alone raised over $200.00 for his class. Since space is limited, not all parents are allowed to go. Trent's teacher, Mrs. Roberts, has a raffle that each parent can purchase a ticket for $5 and only two entries per child. I bought two and put Eric's name on both (he's lived in Lewiston his whole life and has never been up the Snake). Trent and I had prayed every night that his dad would be drawn, and Eric was!! Last Wednesday was the first nice day we've had in a long while, and that just happened to be the day that was scheduled for the boat trip.
The boat driver had no objections about entertaining the kids, so during the heat of the afternoon he decided that he'd do "cookies" and splash any of the kids who sat in the back. Eric snapped some of Trent's turn...
Bracing himself....
..wait for it...
Trent claimed he had a BLAST!! (so did Eric)
