We had a fabulous time in Lake Powell this last week. I used to go to Lake Powell every summer, but I haven't been for six years. I have known Russ for six years and he has never even seen our boat. SAD!!! Anyway, we went with my fam, my two sisters and their families and my Mom and Dad. It was so fun and Halle did so good on the drives and while we were there, we definitely need to take more vacations!
Halle LOVED playing in the sand.
She also loved putting sand and mud in her mouth, blagh!
Russ was playing hard the whole time we were there.
He was definitely in his element!
I thought Hal's would like a boat ride,
she didn't like her life jacket and so she didn't like the ride.
I found Halle in the hallway lounging on the sleeping bag
with a bag of goldfish. So cute!
Russ and Dale on the tube,
they didn't blow up the part that goes under their bums,
so they were totally riding on the water, ouch!
I think they had fun though!
Halle and her Daddy swimming in the water. Halle loved the water!
All in all, such a good trip. It went by so fast, I am so sad it's over!

I can't believe Russ had never been on your boat Lace! I'm so jealous! It's been so long since I've been to Lake Powell. I'm so glad you were able to get away and have a good time!

Southern Utah or Bust! Bryce and I missed my annual family trip to L.P so we could get ourselves moved down here and we were quite bummed about it. I'm glad you got to enjoy the sun, the sand, and the [higher] water with your cute little family. Vacations are a MUST!!

Ahh, Lake Powell...good times to be had and you got some great pics. You are so brave to take a baby to Lake Powell and it looks like Halle just loved it. It just brings back good memories of us at Powell and me peeing off the back of the boat in the middle of the night and getting caught and you flirting with some guy we met there named Charlie...or was that me??? my memory is getting bad!
