Lake Powell Fun

We had the privilege to spend a week of our summer vacation with our friends the Montrone's on a houseboat in Lake Powell. I do believe at one time there were about 22 people on the boat. We had a great time. Here is a photo of the cove and the houseboat. It was was peaceful and calm. From the top deck, this is where we would sit at night and have dinner and drinks and just reflect on the day.
We took a couple of day trips out to explore some the canyons and it was amazing. There is no way to explain it is something everyone should see in person.
One of the tour guides. I am quite certain Austin knew exactly where we needed to go.
Mommy and Colby just chillin in the back on the way back to the houseboat.
Mommy and boys just having a good ole time for the afternoon.
Monster boys on the boat.
Pat cooking up our favorite sausage to share with everyone.
All four of us headed out to explore....this was before Austin grabbed the throttle and dumped all 4 of us off in the water where Pat came up with a bloody nose.
Sean and Pat headed out to tear up the lake.
I am pretty sure Sean and Trevor fished every day and at one point they both hooked the same fish.
Pat teaching the boys how to fish...hope they catch something soon.
Luckily they both caught a fish.
Shower time. Colby was not sure about taking a shower in the lake with his swimsuit on and life jacket but he went along with it.
In one of the coves where we had lunch, drinks, showers and fun
Pat and Colby out for a little father-son time
Sean challenged Pat to a race, Pat won.
Colby and Austin had so much fun in the water. They loved swimming right off the back of the boat.
Funny Austin! Ready to hit the water and look for fish.
This is what our sunsets looked like I actually caught Sean still enough for a quick shot.
Cuddle time at night, as the sun goes down and we prepare for another day of fun.
This was just a great family vacation. The families we vacationed with were great and we had the best time. It was very hard to leave but hopefully there will be another trip to Lake Powell in the future.
