Hold On Taylor!

This past weekend I took Taylor and Bennett down to Lake Powell while Scott stayed at home with the non-swimming, less obedient ones. The weather was beautiful and the houseboat a whole heck of a lot better than camping. We had a great time!


Here is Taylor attempting to get up on a wake board. Look at that determination.

So close!

Let's hope the pictures of me trying to get up never surface. Let's just say that I sufficiently plowed the lake, cleared my sinuses and came home with every muscle from the knees up screaming for mercy.

The boys loved tubing and jet skiing with Tyler and Emily

Bennett spent hours entertaining himself in the mud!

You forgot to mention, "eat junk food"! Glad you could come, hope this is the first of many family memories.

Brings back many happy memories of the Clayton's LP boating days. Way to go, Taylor!

Congrats on the water skiing! I went to Lake Powell every year of my mortal life (except one year) until I was married and I haven't been back yet! Which is very sad for me. Looks like a blast!

How fun! Way to go Taylor. I don't think you ate enough junk food.
