Lake Powell 2011

I'm finally catching up on blogging.  First our trip to Lake Powell.  We went down to Lake Powell with my family June 23-27.  My sister Allison and bro. in law Tyler have a time share on a house boat at Bull Frog and they invited us along for a fun trip.

The classic Jack stare

Just reading our books* getting some sun.  Also notice the water and how choppy it was.  The wind was a little annoying. * I was reading Half Broke Horses by Jeanette Walls.  I really liked it and recommend it.  After you read Half Broke Horses read The Glass Castle by the same author.  They are both true stories based on her family.   

Clark and Max building a sand castle.  I love how Max's hair blends in with the orange sand.

Everyone in attendance included my aunt Sherrie, Cousin Megan her husband Greg and two children Abby and Sam, Cousin Heidi and baby Logan, My mother, Alli and husband Tyler and two children Max & Jack, sisters Adrienne and Katie and Me & Clark  We had a lot of fun and since it was so choppy most of the time we just surfed behind the boat for the majority of the day with a little wake boarding, knee boarding and tubing in between.  The water wasn't as warm as Lake Powell water usually is because there was still a lot of run off coming into the lake and by the time we left the water had gone up about 5 more feet from when he first docked the boat and buried the anchors. 

All in all it was a fun trip!
