I remember sunbathing on the front of the boat, relaxing, and meditating to the sound of . . . nothing. Now we get to experience Lake Powell as a parent and have caught a glimpse of what our parents have done for the last 20 years in we could have fun and memorable time.
It was an instense vacation this year with 8 little ones under 6 years old (2-2 month infants). We enjoyed the beautiful scenery, watching the kids have fun, and the time we spent with family was priceless. Life seems so fast paced lately, it was nice to slow down and focus on each other.
We camped in Crystal Canyon, which was gorgeous. At night we played rock band projected onto the cliffs and the stars were breathtaking. The little boys spent many hours on adventures and caught more fish than I wanted to see. I actually got nibbled on this year, which toally freaked me out. Dad had to fix the toilet and Ross dry heaved more than once trying to assist him. Josh & Korbyn giggled endlessly one evening and the food was absolutely amazing.

Isn't it the truth?! You never know how much your parents sacrficed until you are the parent. I'm glad you had fun and that everyone was safe.
So fun! I'm totally jealous!
WOW is about all I can say! That houseboat is huge. I hope you had so much fun, I can see that the boys did. My sister and I used to fish in Lake Powell using marshmallows from Lucky Charms as bait. We actually caught fish too! Were there any bat dive-bombings??
Jenna that looks like so much fun, no wonder why it is an annual trip. May I join next year??? I am glad you put up pictures, Tasha is slacken.
