LAKE POWELL TRIP
While the boys were out on the lake with the scouts the girls and I decided to try out the swimming pool at the Lake Powell resort. We posed for a few silly shots before heading out.
Just before dipping into the pool Britley said she wasn't feeling well. Within a matter of seconds she threw up! We nixed the swimming idea and headed back to our room so Brit could get a little rest.
By the next morning Britley was feeling much better. The boys were done with scout camp and we were ready to spend the day out on the lake as a family.
Nathan finally gets to drive the boat.
The girls had the perfect view and they were in awe of the beauty.
We stopped to swim/dive and cool off.
The views were gorgeous.
We stopped again for more swimming and then out to wake board.
Time to fill up.
Nathan is trying to catch fish with his bare hands.
He came pretty darn close when the fish swarmed around him after he threw them some Doritos.
More sight seeing.
It was my idea to head toward the narrow canyon. I had no idea just how narrow it got until it was too late.
The kids loved it and I stressed. I was afraid we were going to scrap the sides of the boat. Mr. B.T.C seemed as relaxed as the kids.
For some reason the kids got a kick out of hanging on for dear life and being dragged behind the boat.
This n-a-r-r-o-w view up ahead is what had me put my foot down and demand that the boat get turned around. Glad Mr. B.T.C listened. We would have never made it through that one!
We were barely able to get the boat turned around. When I said barely I meant it! Each of us had to take a corner of the boat (front and back) and baby that thing around until we could make a complete turn without hitting the sides of the boat.
It was getting dark and we were getting hungry which is the reason we headed back to the resort for some fine dining.
