Our family had a wonderful time on our first ever family vacation to Lake Powell!!
We were invited by some good friends the Brown family to join them and 2 other families on their house boat for the week. This was something we have always wanted to do, but never had the opportunity to do so, and it was AMAZING!!!
It was basically like "glamorized camping" but 1000 times better! :)
We did have a bedroom onboard the house boat, but we graciously gave the room to Kierra and Easton so that he could have a quiet place to nap and actually get some sleep.
You're welcome Easton. :)
We only did it because you are our favorite grandchild...;)
Everyone slept so sound at night, all throughout the boat.
We would play so hard all day long in the hot, hot sun, and then be awoken to it's early morning light...
So needless to say, sleep was NOT a great commodity on this trip...but the FUN sure was! :)
(Don't ask me HOW Dallin slept inside this rolled up Lily Pad with no room to roll around.)
After meeting up with our friends, loading up the houseboat, and meeting the other families, we drove the house boat out to a place in the lake called Warm Springs.
It was beautiful and the water was warm, just as it's name implied.
We rode on wave runners and the speed boat doing every water sport imaginable...
Having little Easton and Kierra there was definitely a highlight of the trip too!
(We really missed Riley though who had to stay back at dental school.)
It was so fun to watch the little buddy take in his new surroundings, feeling the water and the warm sand in between his toes...
He is a sweet and happy baby, and interacting with him was such a joy.
Everyone had a friend on the trip, and Kesslyn especially was in heaven with her little friend Gabriella!
These 2 sweeties played and played and played in the sand and on the water, and said each day we were there
"Best. Day. EVER!" :)
I agreed! Every day there WAS the best day ever! ;)
