Lake Mead

My second attempt at catching up on the blog...

Lake Mead with the whole Rowley clan. Such a blast, as always. A relaxing and perfect week, minus one little scare the last night. A HUGE windstorm equated to the houseboat coming loose and almost crushing the two ski boats. Luckily everything turned out fine! I was so happy to be with experienced boaters, because I didn't know what to do.

Anabelle was such a good sport about wearing her life jacket the whole week, and she LOVED playing in the lake.

Lake Powell

It's been a long time since I have posted anything. I considered abandoning the blog all together, but I guess I'll give it another go. So here's my first attempt at catching up.

In May we took a weekend and headed to Lake Powell with Rogan and Kim and the cute kiddos. Who doesn't want to run away and hit the water for a few days. It hadn't been there for years, so I loved the scenery. It is beautiful. The water was pretty chilly, but the weather was great. Thanks for the fun trip!
