Lake Powell

Check out that air!
Ethan on the knee board! Ethan was really nervous but decided he was going to try it. After some tears he was able knee board and was pretty proud of himself.
Jon on the wake board. Jon is getting better and better at this sport.


Ethan and shorty in the holes that the kids dug on the beach. We had a great spot and the kids loved playing on the beach.


Here is Teagon and Ethan with the fish that Ethan caught. Ethan really loves to fish and he gets really excited when he catches one.


AJ on the knee board. The kids thought it was fun to extend their arms and pretend they were flying. AJ wanted to knee board right away and although he said we were often going too fast, he did really well.


Jon's big catch


Lauren and AJ with their catch of the day.


AJ and Lauren


Heidi and Ashley


The kids were very creative and put on several plays for the adults. Here is Ethan proposing to Lauren during one of their plays about "relationships".


We had so much at Lake Powell last week. We went there with our friends Casey and Heidi Jensen and their two girls Ashley and Lauren. They have a time share on a house boat and they also go up with some other friends. So we had ten adults and six kids on the boat. We decided to leave Jocelyn with Jon's parents for the week. So we just had the boys with us. The boys loved playing with the kids. I was surprised that they both went knee boarding. AJ decided that he really liked it and went several times. He was even able to get up on his knees and hold onto the handle. I was able to wake board and learned how to cross the wake and come back over. I had many face plants, but I did it! Jon was amazing with the wake board and was learning how to switch his lead foot. There was also lots of fishing and the boys had fun catching fish.
