On June 17th of this year our family had one of the best vacations ever. We had our family reunion at Lake Powell on a house boat. Now I am not a huge out doors fan, but I would do the Lake Powell thing every year. We all had an absolute blast. We were especially excited that Shaun and Becca were able to come also since we don't get to see them as often. What an awesone week we had!!
Here were are on the ramp loading up the boat to head out. With 17 people you can imagine all the stuff that had to make it on that boat. I'm surprised it could float after we got done stocking it up.
This is our vessel, "The Milky Way". My Uncle Kim and Aunt Kathy have a time share in this boat so we were able to all go.
Here is the view from the top deck in the morning. We were in this beautiful cove with cliffs, a swimming area and room to ride in the boat.
Ashlee and Morgan waiting for dinner.
Becca and Ella in the kitchen.
Mom, Shaun and Carter (Cooper) on the back deck.
Nothing like a kiddie pool in the middle of the lake. Top deck and all. Here Ella is sharing "HER" pool with Maddie and Coop. Ella is hilarious and she says everything is hers. A girl after my own heart.
Maddie and Paul going for a ride.
Shaun showing off on the cliffs. Actually the cliff jumps were a constant competition all weekend. My poor Dad, "Who refuses to lose a competition even if he is to old" was forced to go to extreme heights to keep up. He did it though.
There goes Bill. And yes his back hurt after this.
Haley and I got in on the jumping action too.
This was funny. I was holding Ella while everyone was cliff jumping. After Shaun went off the cliff she told me that she needed to do it too. So we took her up and she jumped off. She is a little dare devil that girl.
Jaci and Bill getting ready for bed time.
All the kids and grandkids.
