Our neighbor's / our friends / our Bishop.... invited us to Lake Powell for fall break along with another family in our ward - The Peterson's. The kids had a great time of course and us adults enjoyed ourselves as well. It was pretty cold the first day but every day continued to get warmer & warmer, the cold water sure didn't stop any of the kids. Between all 3 families we had 17 kids on this house boat. It got a little crazy @ meal time but other than that it wasn't to bad! It was actually totally relaxing and so much fun. Thank you..... Erickson's for the invite - we had a great time!
Beware....there is quite a few pictures below
Our Bishop was so patient with all these kids & their needs - if only I could have a piece of that trait!?!
I wish
Baby Holland & Taylor
Holland was such a trooper. Considering all the kids and no naps.... I was amazed @ how happy she was the whole week.

That Cruise Inn boat brings back some fun memories. How fun that you got to go on that boat after sooo many years! Looks like you guys had a blast. Holland is so adorable. I haven't seen her in a couple months.
Looks like a fun time! I think I'd be freezing in the water though-I'm wimpy like that. You always get great photos trace.
