I SERIOUSLY love Lake Powell!

Lake Powell will always hold a special place in my heart. I have childhood memories here. I love how there is no agenda when you come here. You don't have to wear make up or get ready. You just get to sit back, enjoy the people you love, and play in the sun! Firework shows at night were AMAZING!


The wishing lanterns were even better! They would fly super high in the sky until you couldn't see them anymore and they were biodegradeable!
Everyone got a turn to make their wish. Ryker was mad his wish didn't come true right away. He wished that he could fly.

There it goes!


Gary took full advantage of his vacation! He tried the air chair, surfing, and wakeboarding. Here he is with the kids on the awesome raft!


He was really good at surfing! He loved it and went out everyday sometimes twice a day to do it!


I had a pretty good time too! We had our survivor wars. Me and my cousin Harm raced in trash bags. I was the winner!!! We also had some tubin' adventures. I have a huge bruise to prove it. We get rough and try to throw all the people on the other tube off. Harm was on my team and we kicked some serious butt!


I love being able to spend time with family and rekindle relationships!


Me and my sis Cass.




Gary and I.





Jonah played with the other babies and did what babies do best.


We took him out in the sand a few times he loved digging his toes in it!


He also had his first boat ride!


Ryker was in heaven. I don't think he stopped going until I made him lay down at night. He told me that he wants to live in Lake Powell forever!


As you can see he was so tired. He wore himself ragged but he would keep on a playin!


He tried surfing with Dad! I was so proud :)


He went for lots of boat rides!


& played in the sand.


He played alot with his cousin Kalli.


And probably his most favorite part was catching all of the lizards. He would catch lizards for hours! It never got old to him.


He carried his lizard around in ths pink bucket for a long time!








Catchin lizards again with cousins carson and diesel.





Pettin his lizard. Yes I think it's safe to say he had an amazing time!


Violet also had some fun. She loved playing with her cousin Diesel!


PLayed with old fireworks in the sand,


Loved this zebra,


Got buried in the sand,


Played with other two year olds Dash, and Finnley. So stinkin cute!





She also poured massive amounts of sand on her head. :)


She loved just being around the other kids and she had a great time playing in the foot water that everyone dipped their feet in before getting into the houseboat. She even drank a couple cup fulls. ICK :) Luckily she didn't get sick!


Grandma Jen and Poppa Shane came along too!


Here was our beautiful spot!


And the most amazing Aunt and Uncle I ever could ask for whom invited us all to join them.


Uncle Brad and Aunt Jill. LOVE EM'
