Lake Powell

What you do you get when you combined 150 people, 3 houseboats, 14 wakeboarding boats, 4 days and Lake Powell?

A REALLY GOOD TIME!

Erin, Stacy and I went on a trip to Lake Powell this last weekend. We had an amazing time! Lake Powell is a little piece of heaven. I could be down there everyday and never get sick of it.

Thanks to going there is July, it was pretty darn hot during the day. The made swimming party's mandatory! So this was us for the majority of the time. Or being on the boat. I was quite the "rope girl" During our first afternoon out on the boats, I went wakeboarding. I was having a really difficult time getting up. (which was making me just plain angry) So I finally got up and started to go outside the wake and caught my toe edge and it caused quite the wreck. You can see that my leg is bruised. But this picture does not even give it justice. I don't think I have ever hit the water that hard in my life. I actually thought I had chipped a tooth. Thank goodness I did not. But man am I still feeling this epic crash! My mom told me one thing multiple times! "DO NOT GET BURNED!" So I am proud to say mom, I didn't get burned. Too bad Stacy can't say the same. Meet Erin, she is a 26 year old going on 97. She is too darn funny. She has the cutest little Grandma scream and asked one day when we were riding in the front of the boat if she should put on a life jacket. Mind you, she can swim. I just started to laugh and asked if she thought she was REALLY going to be thrown from the boat. She responded, "you just never know!" Oh Erin. You are too funny!

This is me and Era. One morning we decided to hit the lake at 6 am with a small group. Of course the morning we go out it is absolutely FREEZING. This was us the entire way on the boat. Needless to say, we did not wakeboard this morning.

On Sunday morning, we went on a site seeing adventure. For those of you who have not been to Lake Powell. Start planning a trip. It is incredible. 180 miles wide and 1,200 miles of shoreline. AMAZING!

Erin got a little sleepy on our site seeing adventure.May really really loves me. And this pictures shows just how much!

Once again, mom! I did not get burned! And Stacy yet again can't say the same thing.

No burns here... just a golden tan!

At this point in the trip. We were so grateful to be heading home to a real shower and our beds. I went straight home and started a load of laundry and climbed into the best shower of my life!

Lake Powell 2011 you did not disappoint!
