The Best Place On Earth!! otherwise known as Lake Powell

What a fun vacation!! This is our families favorite place to go! Warm water, beautiful scenery, good food and the best company... you can't get better than that. We left early Sat. morning and met up with the rest of the crew and headed out on the house boat to find a spot to camp. We found a beautiful spot in Hansen Canyon that ended up being perfect. There was so much to do...hiking, wake boarding, skiing, surfing, playing cards, reading books and don't forget eating. I don't know what it is about Lake Powell, but everyone feels like they can eat what ever they want at any time of the day... and I love that. Candy at 9:00 in the morning or Ding Dongs after you have brushed your teeth for the night. It's great! It was also my birthday while we were there. Everyone was so nice and made the day so wonderful! My cute mother in law made yummy Hawaiian Haystacks and we had a Luau. It was so fun and made me feel so special! Thanks to my hubby for my awesome present ( heart rate monitor for my workouts) and for being him. He is always so thoughtful and makes my birthday so special! I am defiantly the luckiest girl ever!
Well we had a great trip and made some wonderful memories. We left our cute Audrey at home, which was really nice to not have to worry about her, although we did miss her a lot!! Thanks to my mom and my sisters for watching her!! I love you!
Thanks to Grannie and Grandpa for the amazing trip!!
We love you!

I still have never been to Lake Powell but it looks like it is definitely somewhere I need to get to! I'm glad you guys had a great time. And your b-day luau looked like a lot of fun. We need to get together and play games or something soon.
