"Play Hard" in Lake Powell!!!!

Aaron and I (with NO kids) just got back from a BLAST of a trip to LAKE POWELL! Our awesome friends took us. We got some baby sitters for the kids...and left for 5 days. (We never have left the kids at all before. So it was a little scary, but we did fine..the kids did fine..so all was well.)

When I say we had a BLAST, I mean we had SUCH A WONDERFUL, FANTASTIC, GREAT and GLORIOUS time. We stayed on a beautiful house boat for 4 nights. The beauty of Lake Powell is soo wonderus!! We slept under the amazing stars, ate WAYYYYY TOO much food. We swam, slid down the slide on the back of the boat. We had dance parties at night. We boated, water weenied, skiied, wakeboarded. We hiked. We just plain had a great time!

Sorry for the overload of pictures. It seems like a lot, but I only put on a FEW of the ones we took down there.

Thanks Ry and Ree...we had SUCH a great time with you and the gang!!

ummm...so very, very jealous!
I have lived in UT my whole life and have never been to lake powell. Looks like I need to take matters into my own hands and make it happen.

Lake Powell is the best! Can't wait to go in a few months! Nothing is more relaxing than sleeping up on top, crickets chirping, and the stars sparkling! Can't wait to go myself!
