We are so very lucky that we got to spend 4 days last week at Lake Powell on a houseboat. My parents rented a houseboat for the whole family, and all of my siblings and families were there except Mele, Noah, Ethan & Char. When we got there, it was looking stormy and soon started raining. The weather had us worried for the first 24 hours, but then it cleared up and was beautiful! September is beautiful at Lake Powell because the temperatures are down, but the water is still warm. And having the house boat was just icing on the cake. Makes potty, meals, & sleeping much easier. And when the kids get tired or are cold, we can pop on a DVD! Thanks mom & dad, we had such a great time.
Took this picture for you Mele, since you weren't there to take it. What a cute little face!
This kid couldn't have loved walking around in the sand more! He played it in, dipped his face in it, tried to eat it, and toddled around for hours!
Tige dug a huge hole, and the kids played in it for hours the whole time we were there. Who knew a big sand hole would be so entertaining!
Taylor's first trip into the water. The was the first day when it was cold. He didn't enjoy it, as you can see. Neither did his daddy.
The slide! A big hit for everyone!
Even 2 year old Abby was SOOOO brave! She only went once though. Couldn't fool her a 2nd time.
Ole! Daddy
Our 3 stooges. Brock, Bryce, Kason
I love these boys.
Yummy water!
We used this to clean our feet before getting on the boat. Taylor, Abby, Adam & Ryan used it as a bath tub. They loved sitting in it and playing.
This is Andy's snazzy new tube. It was SOOOO fun! Even Tige and I took a ride on it while I screamed and laughed the whole time (and was sore the next day). These 5 kids would have been pulled on that tube all day long if we'd let them. They loved it.
More tubing.
I'm proud to say none of my kids got sunburned at all. I'm a sunscreen nazi!
Kason cliff jumping. He's not afraid of much!

Surprise, surprise, Adam was grabbing himself for the picture. ;)
What fun your parents are so good to rent it for the whole family.
