Our new boat (orange of course!) finally got delivered literally the day we were planning on leaving to Lake Powell for a week with our friends on their house boat. I hadn't been to Lake Powell since Scott and I were dating (probably 15 years ago!). This was my first time on a house boat and had a hard time picturing how 12 adults and 12 kids could all be on one boat! I didn't realize how big they are! This one had 2 kitchens, bathrooms/toliets/showers (!), and 2 TV's. Not to mention many bedrooms to fit everyone! What a fun time we all had!! We left Kensley home with Shokey since I was nervous having such an independent, unafraid 2 year old on the water for so long. The boys had a blast looking for lizards and (gasp!) snakes! And loved the boat rides, knee boarding, tubing, jet ski's, smores, exploring, hikes (with quick sank!!), fishing, etc., etc. Basically just enjoying some summer like weather with very limited rules and structure!! Though there were some scary moments with 50 mph winds and plumbing issues, we had a great time and can't wait to go back and explore some more of the beautiful canyons at Lake Powell!!!
