OK, so I guess it's not my single favorite place since we also have an awesome cabin to visit on a regular basis, but Lake Powell feels like home to me. We spent last weekend swimming in the water, basking in the sun and partaking in the general awesomeness that is Lake Powell. Each and every time we go I am reminded how much I love it. I love driving the boat at high speed across Bullfrog Bay, feeling the wind in my hair, the sun and spray on my face. I love sitting in the shade at the end of Lost Eden canyon, bobbing like a cork on the water and looking up at the overhanging rocks. I love walking on top of the hot sand and shoving my feet into it, feeling the coldness just below the surface. I love my kids sunkissed faces, watching them catch lizards and play in the sand and water all day, and putting them to bed in sandy pajamas and sandy sleeping bags. I love their glee when they wake up in the morning and realize we're still there in play-all-day land.
Chance and Conner, rocking it in the tube.
Carter loved sitting in the boat, he could sneak treats when nobody was looking.
The Captain!
Me in my awesome new sunglasses. Like the camera reflection? I knew you would.

Always a model
This must be one of my favorite pictures EVER.
And one more of the model.
I do not love the laundry, house cleaning and general return to work that comes after such a super fun, relaxing weekend!
P.S. I didn't get many more pictures than that because I hung a wet blanket over the top of the boat on the third day and it dripped on my camera. *SIGH* The good news is that my camera did in fact dry out and survived the tragedy :)
