Lake Powell

After Kyle's blessing we took off for Lake Powell with my Grandpa Loveridge and my cousins.

My dad brought a kayak that, for the most part, my boys enjoyed riding in.  They weren't so thrilled with being splashed by the paddles.  Ryan and dad paddled the kayak all the way from the launch ramp to the buoy field - no small feat.

Caden thought he was so cool driving the houseboat.

The kids carried on a tradition from when I was young, and Caden put on his own 'war paint' (aka, colored zinc for sunscreen)

Ryan spent most of his time tying a hammock.

The boys loved swimming with Aunt Kellie, Grandma, and Grandpa.

Eric was a little intimidated by the water, but still wanted to be part of the action, so he would ride around in our inflatable boat.  When my mom was busy, they would swim with 'Other Grandma' (aka my mom's twin sister).

Here are my boys relaxing after a playing hard.
