Happiest place on Earth, AKA Lake Powell

We invited ourselves to the Nymeyers week at the lake. And got to spend a couple days with Sterling, and Brentyn and their wives before they had to go back to work. Meet baby Navey, who was so sweet.  Then it was just Cooper, his roommate John, Lacey and Chandler, Aunt Stacey, and my parents for the  rest of the week. It was a great week and loved being together for a perfect week of fun.
On our way to the Lake we went to Ramah for Stathan's baptism which was so awesome, so glad we could be there, and see him on his special day 8 on the 8th. After the baptism we ran into some car trouble in  Gallup but it was a simple fix 4 hours later just need to clean the fuel injectors and we were back on our way.

One thing we did this year that I have never done was take an afternoon to go back into town to see the horseshoe bend. It was BEAUTIFUL. but very nerve racking, no railing and steep deadly drop, we took some quick pictures and headed back to the cars before anything scary could happen.

 

The houseboat, speed boat, and jet ski all ran great, we had a great spot, got lots of swimming and  exploring in.


  Had a pirate day, found buried treasure and everything. The loot was great, ring pops and gold coins even the heart of Tefite

One of the best things we found was a natural splash pad, there was a circle of islands you could walk or swim around. This is where Elle got her courage to be in the water since she could see the bottom and swim when she wanted. Wyatt has complete trust in his life jacket and can actually get around pretty well. It was hard to keep him out of the water. Conway learned to love the tubes this year and would even ride fast with the big boys. All the kids got a little fishing in and loved sleeping on top of the house boat. We watched Moana at least once a day and still love that movie



 

Sure loved being with the John's for the week. We love them all to pieces.
