Vacation Week 3 - Part Two

LAKE POWELL
(The Utah Side)

Water Sporting Events

TUBING
Yes, that is Spencer on the tube with me. He actually loved it when we got started, but I guess he didn't like water splashing in his face, because he only lasted a few minutes before he started the screaming and arching the back thing. Unfortunately, that's when Kyle decided to take the picture.

Kyle - "Look no hands!"

Janelle and Mommy
Janelle's screams: "GO FASTER!!!!"
My screams while holding onto Janelle for dear life hoping she wouldn't fly off: "SLOW DOWN!"
In this picture we compromised and told Grandpa the driver to speed up but "JUST A LITTLE!"


FISHING
Rachel and Mark patiently awaiting the big bites...unfortunately nothing was biting this morning.

...but they were sure biting this night!
Kyle and Jay's famous fish


Sorry this picture is blurry. I tried to delete it but it wouldn't let me.

BOATINGMy brother the tired driver

Grandpa the windblown focused driver

The cool passengers
Check out those shades!

The multi-tasking driver:
Standing, driving, pulling wakeboarders

WAKEBOARDING
Daniel the pro wakeboarder

The Rookie: Me
Disclaimer: I actually DID get up this particular day, there just aren't any pictures to prove it. I also got up the next day quite a few times. Wakeboarding is SO fun! I LOVED IT!!!! I highly recommend it and prefer it over water skiing any day.

SWIMMING
Janelle and cutie pants Harvey taking a dip in the hot afternoon. I love seeing Janelle with all her little boy cousins, she just adores them!

Scary Face!

Boy would I love to live closer to Lake Powell!!!!

I haven't been their either. It looks like tons of fun. I would love to go tubing. I can't believe you had Spencer out there too.

I LOVE to wakeboard too! Were you SO SO sore afterwards? I was sore in places I've never been sore before! Maybe I'm just out of shape ;p

Kasia-
Yes, I was MAJORLY sore afterwards - especially in my armpits! Weird. But it was so worth it!

Hey--my armpits were sore too! I love all your pics--it makes me want to go back!
P.S. Janelle is such a mini-me of Kyle in that picture in your latest post! Twins!
