lake trips.

a few weeks ago (august 13th) we went to the powell with the fam/friends.

i have been unable to go to my favorite place in the entire universe for the past 3 summers in a row, due to various things like china :), mexico, and just plain life...so i was overly anxious to finally go relax and make more memories here.

and that we did.
with these ladies...

not to mention it was matix's first time on the houseboat!!

did i mention that we almost got attacked by a beaver???

okay so maybe not. but he definitely didnt appreciate us hiking over his dam...

and therefore rerouted our hike up a mountain, instead.

good times.

i cant wait---

to go back!!

last saturday (august 22) my wonderful padre to me and a bunch of mis amigos to lake mead for the day.

although the weather was less-than-ideal, there was no stopping us from having a grand time.

in fact..it ended up being one of my favorite trips. everrr.

it must have been the company :)

or the fact that the waves were ginormous..which made for some awesome jet-skiing, and some intense tubing.

and of course i cant forget to mention the fact that my new flowing locks of hair...

motivated me and my friends to become mermaids.

we put ariel to shame. true story.

plus it was her first time to the lake everrrrrrrr.

what??? ya you heard right. go megs. i love her.

thanks again, captain stevie.
