lake powell

we had an amazing trip to lake powell this year. THANKS DAD AND MOM!!!!!!!   Im so glad that my kids were able to experience and see such an extraordinary place and bonus spending time with family. Since we all live so far away its great to spend a week together even if it's a little crazy as the family is getting bigger...three babies on a boat is a bit of a challenge but well worth it!

gwen had to give everyone hugs

no boat trip is complete without a barbie wedding (we even received an invitation)

yep the boat can fit in there! crazy huh...but oh so fun

gwen would steal collins food..collin would steal zacks food..and poor zack he was trying to just hold on to anything he could.

do we pose or what?!

even if i didnt get a good pic she had so much fun playing in the sand with kylee

richard has the pic with everyone///and the rest of the trip

. my camera was about to die so this is almost the whole group :)

put to sleep where u can. I love that the new thing on this trip was hold on to something. Whatever she had as she was getting tired she would not let go. I even tried to take this purse out of her hand and she started to wake up. Cant let someone take your purse!

lyssa tried to catch one haha

jeremy could never get enough skiing. cant wait to go back

katelynn had fun practicing photography with aunt lyssa..even if a few our heads were cut out (she said she wanted a pic of our swim suits haha)

trying to scare some kids

zack and gwen gettin into trouble

had some beautiful sunsets

on the way home we had a pit stop at the grand canyon

even if we added a little more time to an already long trip it was unreal to see just how big it is

lyssa was soooo lucky to get to ride with a car full of kids! haha

thanks for helping keep the sanity
