(Okay-I am SOO behind but I had to tell about this trip!)
{my} Aunt Tammy & Uncle Gene invited my family to join them on a house boat in Lake Powell. AWESOME! It worked out so only me, Ashley, Sarah, and Charlie went. Jimmy couldn't take off work, and Sophie was too young to go (and my dear mom volunteered to watch her). We spent 4 days/3 nights on the house boat. I enjoyed spending time in the sun, and playing in the sand. It was a GREAT time! It was just beautiful! My kids wore their life jackets without complaints, and everyone was very helpful with my kids. There were 20+ people on this houseboat so it got cozy, but I LOVED IT! Another one of my aunts & I were in charge of feeding all those people. We did a decent job, but learned a LOT!
I did water ski, but I cannot get wake boarding. I get up, but then don't know what to do....so that was frustrating (cause my little 10 year old cousin was doing better than me!!). We had some hot dog/wave cutter rides. I got hit in the head while being knocked off one time by one of my uncles. He just about gave me a black eye! I loved being with my kids SOO much. We had cell service so I could still check on my baby & hubby! I LOVE DIANE (the boats' name).
Pictures:
I slept with my girls on a bed in the front of the boat. I was the last one asleep and first one awake. Charlie slept in the pack-n-play.
We watched a movie one afternoon and cute charlie fell asleep in his chair. Kids also tried fishing off the side of the boat.
Diane had a slide off the back of the boat. Adults & kids enjoyed going down the slide to cool off. I got both of my girls to go down the slide. Ashley was hesitant, i had to practically push her off, but she did it.I LOVE LAKE POWELL and Diane-I can't wait to meet up with you again, my friend!
