Sarah, showing everyone how it's done down the houseboat's water-slide

The kids had such a great time hiking and exploring the shore. They created games and had hours of fun on the beautiful red rocks.

Our gorgeous home for 4 days..We could have stayed sooo much longer. (We definitely had enough food, Diet Coke and the desire...just not enough time. Thanks Sarah and JD!

Jenn and Skip showing the kids a good time. I think Sam and Drew spent over 90% of their waking hours on that float


Getting the houseboat secured to the sandstone shore wasn't an easy task and it took a little fine-tuning to prevent it from knocking around whenever a large boat cruised by.

One morning Brad and Sam took off on a long hike. They were gone for a few hours. Sam has said it was one of his favorite memories of the whole trip.

Lunch with friends

These are some of my friends from home. We got together for lunch to catch up on what we've all been doing for the past 10 months. It's so great to know that while people change and lives change friends last forever.

Canyon Picnic with Ben, Kevin Cope and the Kids

Michelle and Bailee were out of town on a trip to NYC and Karen Cope (Michelle's sister-in-law) was also away so we took a trip up the canyon to cook dinner and enjoy the beauty of Provo canyon. It turned out to be a really fun evening
