Yes, that is right ladies and gentleman, I found my new favorite place on earth! Ben and his family have been talking Lake Powell up for YEARS. I never having been, knew it would be fun, but never imagined I would fall in love! Ben and I were invited with some friends of ours to go to Lake Powell the beginning of September and we had an absolute blast! We left the kids home with my little Sister for the weekend, so that made it even better! I loved spending some much needed time with my husband and getting to know 'us' again. The weather was perfect, in the 80's-90's and nights were gorgeous. We skiied, wakeboarded, watched the stars, played games, ate lots of food, swam, etc..It was a dream. I decided I love Lake Powell so much because of the peacness of it. It was so beautiful, serisously breath taking. All of the red rock and beautiful scenery was seriusly amazing. We slept in a tent, (which I love), layed out, read books, slept, it was fun. (I want to go back!) Even though i missed my kids, it was a much needed vacation and hope to do it again in the near future. Thanks friends, we had a blast!
Love you babe
Alot of horseshoe competitions between the husbands..you all know mine is VERY competitive, so I won't say out loud who won. (Good job Matt!)
Awww
I asked Ben to paint my toenails thinking he would just laugh, but much to my suprise he did it! And actually did a pretty good job! Husband of the year award.. I'm pretty sure!

Can you see us? Ben and I climbed this little Mountain and are sitting by that big rock and green bush. We dove out of the boat, swam over to it and climbed, then just did some scenery watching.
Our humble abode
Wishing this was our abode...someday honey, someday..
Kisses

My talented husband. You put a pair of skiis on this man (water or snow) and he flys! He seriously is so good at it, it's so fun to watch.

Got up! My first try on the wakboard and I got up! How long I stayed up...now that's another story.

Swimming
My dare devil of a husband. For some reason he gets a thrill of diving off of very high cliffs...I beg him every swmming trip we go on not to, doesn't do much if you can't tell.
After much pursuasion he talked me into jumping off. I know it doesn't look that high but when you are up there it's way higher I swear!!
