My Favorite Place ever!!!

I always love going to Lake Powell but my favorite time of the year is defiantly the fall this year we headed down during the middle of September and it was beautiful, the weather was sometimes a little crazy but mostly it was wonderful the kids were amazing and the water was so warm!!! We had the best beach ever, the kids could just play and never have to worry about getting in stickers in there feet!!! Big bomb fires morning and night and we had a great time together!!! I just headed down with the girls John had to work so Me and the girls headed down with my parent and sister and had a great time!!!

Of course you can tell the kids spent most of the days playing in the sand and swimming, and going on lots of hikes we had some really cool rock formations right behind us that they like to hike on!!

Little miss Sayla playing in the sand!!!

Part of the funnest part of going to Lake Powell is the people you go with every year we get to go with the Bennet family and we have the time of our lives hanging out talking, Laughing and just enjoying each other!!! We absolutely love them to death, so here is a pic of all the Bennet girls and Afton and me.

Makenna playing with the Dalton, and Brin in the sand!!

These kids had the time of there lives tubing all of over Lake Powell that is one thing about going in the fall having the Lake to your self and it was glass for two days straight!!! These kids could not get enough of it!!! So stinken cute!!

I love this picture!!! The kids had so much fun!!

Makenna was so determined to water ski, it was so funny because she kept trying, she is such a little dare devil!!

As you can see she got up for just a second and them she would lean to her right side and fall over but it was a good start!!! She did really well and we were all so proud of her!!

Hanging out on the boat, Sayla loves to just hanging out and ride on the boat she is so happy just chillen!!!

So being 7 months pregnant it was hard to be in Lake Powell with glassy water and not being able to do much so it was fun to finally get out on the tube and go for a ride!!!!

Makenna and Sayla love going down the slide off the back of the house boat!! So we had so much fun playing off the back of the house boat!!!

Playing off the back of the house boat!!!


The girls had a great time playing in the sand and swimming, they have so much fun playing with all the kids!!!


Lots of fun pics!!!

The whole time we were there Makenna wanted to go and climb this rock mountain that was in the middle of the lake so we finally were able to go and climbed it and took some fun picture!!! we were only able to go for a couple days, but it turned out to be one of the funnest trips!!!

Labor Day Weekend!!!

Labor Day weekend we all headed up to Scolfield to the cabin and spent the weekend up there it ended up being great weather and kids love playing with there cousins!!! On Saturday afternoon Uncle Cole got this great Idea to head down to the lake and take the kids Crawdad fishing, like we use to do when we were kids so we all loaded up and headed down to the lake and ended up having the time of our lives catching crawdads!!!
Grandma and Makenna were getting right into it right off the bat!!!

Makenna loved to touch them and Carrie them for everyone!!!

As you can see no fear!!! Makenna was loving it!! The best thing was as soon as we but the bait in the water we would have one on it that fast so the kids were going crazy!!

The best grandma ever!!! She is defiantly one of a kind!!!

Makenna and Hannah, these girls are the best of friends!! I love watching them play together!!!At the end of the night we had catched a total of 35 crawdads, we had a great time. All Makenna is talking about is when we are going to go again!!! She is hooked on crawdad fishing!!!



Fun pictures of everyone catching crawdads!!!

More pics!!!


So this girl makes me laugh so hard, if you can't tell by the pictures but she is hilarious, she had to wear her Dora pajamas with her cowboy boots and then when we were hiking down to the doc she found this stick and spent most of the time marching up and down the doc checking out the crawdads in the bucket!!! Then when I want to take picture of her she just starts making faces and striking poses!!! I just love her so stinken much!!!

At the end of then night we headed back to cabin and boiled all of them in a big old Jumblie dish that Laura Cole's girl friend had made up, (she is from Louisiana) it turned out to be pretty dang good the kids and adults ate every single one nothing went to waste!!! What a good time!!
