Lake Powell

On our way to Lake Powell we stopped in Salt Lake to meet up with Brock and enjoy a free Bright Eyes concert in the park. 


We got there early enough to actually see the stage. These are all the not so lucky people. It was a really fun, slightly crazy, night. 




The next day we headed to Lake Powell bright and early.  We met up with the Maughan, Brown and Bushman families.


We had such a great time at Lake Powell. All we had to do was show up, sit back and relax. Okay, okay Zach helped out with boats and anchoring but I stayed nice and relaxed. haha. We had delicious food the whole week, fun entertainment and beautiful scenery. 


 Everyday I got a full body wok out between swimming, kiaking, wake boarding, knee boarding and sand hill climbing. On Sunday we had so much fun dancing, watching every one dance, making bracelets and playing Hearts.


While we were there we were introduced to one of the best games ever. Corn Hole. It was especially fun because we could play couples verses couples. Basically the team that gets 21 points first wins. If it lands on the board its 1 point if it goes in the hole its 3 points. We took turns winning and played until it got too windy or too dark. We might just have to make our own Corn Hole set up.  


We had so much fun out on the lake with every one. It was really warm which made the water feel perfect. 
I must say that I am so proud to have enjoyed the weather with out getting really burnt ever! okay a little on my knees and shoulders but no peeling and lots of freckles. A true red head feat.


We had so much fun talking and visiting with Scott and Nikki and everyone else. It was such a friendly group and we truly loved every moment. We hope to run into you all again. Thanks for the awesome trip Scott and Nikki!
