lake powell...round 2.

my life is one big party, im quite aware of this.
okay it's not really, but i have been going on trips left and right it seems.
and lucky for me..i got TWO trips to lake powell this summer. yay!
i guess it makes up for the three years in a row i didnt get to go at all. poor me.
anyways off to powell it was for a week with the fam+some friends.
it was so much fun!!!
we camped in rock creek, and played, played, and played some more.


matix played in the sand on the beach most of the trip
and he also mastered the art of swimming in a life jackets, instead of just ploppin on his back like before! yay!
he wasnt much of a fan of the slide
he loved the tube until he fell off, then not so much.
and the motorcycles (jet skis) were great fun, unless it was choppy
and the best part was having 8 of his cousin to play with all day everyday!


doug (the boyfriend) also survived a week on a boat with the family
and everyone even likes him more, now---SUCCESS.
he told the kids goodnight stories everynight (they were hilarious to listen to)
scared off the crows with his very own SCARECROW (who thinks of this stuff? umm...doug)
and managed to kick everyone's butt at shanghai.
i think it's safe to say...he's a keeper.
