Lake Powell 2010

My Mom's husband Jeff has an obsession with boats-- lucky for us he lets us all tag along on all his adventures to the lakes around Utah. This past trip to Lake Powell was the first trip that we took that we didn't stay on his big boat--for Jeffery has a new toy. A really pretty, fast, shiny, fun ski boat with an open bow, absolutely perfect for a weekend out with family enjoying the water!!! We are really grateful that they let us tag along, and Aunt Katie even got to come on this trip, we had so much fun.

First it was the girls birthdays so Aunt Katie made some really cute Cup cakes and we celebrated with presents from Gma and Gpa and Katie.





After that we went down to the water to check it out-- we had heard that the water was pretty cold and that we wouldn't enjoy swimming in the lake like we wanted to. Our fears were put to rest when we reached the water-- it was pretty much perfect!!!




The rest of the trip was typical Lake Powell get up at the crack of dawn and see the amazing sunrises, try to go back to sleep, sweat in the tent, get uo, go out on the lake all day, swim, eat, play, and crash in bed at dusk only to wake up and do it all again the next day-- what a perfect trip. We are so lucky and my kids are the coolest ever!!! Taven and Aspen tried the knee board for the first time, Ry and I wakeboarded, we had a blast on the tube, caught tons of big fish, and even with all of that-- relaxed (a little bit!!!)

Dancing Girls!!!

The girls have been taking Ballet and Tap for the past few months and just had their first recital. Aspen loves to dance and make new friends, but for Berkley it wasa successful day if she wasn't kicked out of class for being a disruption! Too funny!! They both performed really well and liked to be on stage. I am so proud to be a mommy of such wonderful children they make me smile each and everyday!!!
