Another trip to Lake Powell.

Sorry I've been so lax on posting.
We took another trip to Lake Powell this last weekend & we had a ton of fun.
We really needed at least one day longer though.
We left the big kids home because last time they got bored & did the usual teenager pout thing.
They wanted us to constantly run them to the marina where they could get service so they could talk & text there friends.
When we didn't do what they wanted 24/7 then they would get mad & pout.
Plus my daughter had to work so since it was just the weekend we left them home.
They both live at there dads house anyways.
(He lives about 2 blocks away from us)
The whole thing is another post altogether, I'll tell you about it another time.



Anyway we had a very good time.
Here are some pics.....




The boys had so much fun playing in the marina the water was so warm it was like 81 degrees.
I had a hard time getting them out.


Dad had a good time doing his thing!




The boys always have a good time on the boat.
Kelton wearing mom's glasses.
(I can't get him to wear his own, but he'll wear mine crazy kid!)


Gage watching the older boys, dad & grandpa cliff diving.
Jer's sister Steph, borhter in-law Roger & there oldest son Colby on there boat.
Kelton & dad swinging.
(Gage didn't like the water unless he could run around in it himself.)

Grandpa climbing the rocks to cliff dive.

Grandpa resting after his long climb.
Grandpa jumping!!!
Way to go Grandpa!!!


Random pics.....




Packing up to come home.

To all of our family that couldn't make it this time you were missed.
Oh & I actually got in the lake.
(that's a big deal for me because I am deathly afraid of water that I can't see the bottom).

I remember cliff diving with Heather at Powell a long long long time ago. I love the picks and kudo's to you for leaving the pouters home so you could relax and enjoy. If I didn't have such bad feet I'd ask Jer to teach me his water tricks cause that's awesome. I'm glad you had such a good time. :)

Looks fun Tina! We are going there in a couple weeks too. Love that place. I agree! It was great to meet you at the reunion. Hubby finally kind of remembered you after Rich filled him in. LOL Rich married one of my best friends. Small world. I realized that night just how shy my hubby must have been in high school though. *grin* Thanks for keeping my blog stuff on here!
