-Babysitting Duty and Grandpa Vernon's Birthday Party-

Derrik and I got the "opportunity" (wink wink Ang) to take my sisters 2 little girls for a few days while they went to Pendelton for the week. Derrik and I went up and Stayed at her house for a few days so Keanna could go to school, then we headed to my moms for the rest of the weekend for his Grandpa's Birthday Party.

Okay so I HAD to capture this moment, I was inside and told Keanna to grab her shoes and whatever else she needed to take a stroll to the park... Well I walked outside to find this

She decided Laney needed a stroller so they made their own with the one part that the baby car seat clips too, Lol I was Dying Laughing when I saw this, Looks comfy right :)

A little kickball in the park.

Then on Saturday we went to Derrik's cousins open house and I had to get a picture of these 2 cute kids.

Aren't they PRECIOUS, I mean really who couldn't love that crazy eyed girl and handsome little boy :)

-Lake Powell-

For those of you who know me very well know that a trip to Lake Powell is Almost at the very top of all my vacation choices. Derrik and I hadn't been since 2008, so it was MUCH NEEDED! We went with a big group from Derrik's company and had an absolute Blast. Each office had their own house boat and they highered personal Chef's as well. The Food was all Amazing, it was fun not having to worry about planning meals and packing all the coolers, we just each had a bag and showed up it was Delightful :)

All of the boys had way too much fun on the water weeny, 4 man tube, etc. It was nice watching Derrik relax and just have fun after his long summer!

Of course they had to do back flips off the back of the 2 story house boat, I swear he has NO FEAR it scares me to death!

Jessica was a Natural on the Wake Surf, she made all of us girls and actually some of the boys look Really bad :)

The boys took us on a CRAZY tub ride one of the days, they had No Mercy. But I must say we all held on pretty well given the speed and waves... oh except for me of course, I swear I am ALWAYS the first and only one off of a tub :( We were hitting such big waves that our legs would bounce up and hit our heads a couple of times, I got quite the battle wound. This stupid bruise stayed for days!

A little night time Hot Tubbing up on top, it was a beautiful night and a Full moon:)

We went on a little hike one of the days up above our camp, we both decided when we were up there that we HAVE to come back every year just to get away from the hustle and bustle of life. Derrik was cute because he would just sit and look out at all the scenery and just say how much he loves this place and how peaceful it is. I couldn't agree more, a little peice of heaven on earth, especially when you have a nice clean bed, bathroom, and yummy home cooked meals :)

Derrik and Tavita being silly

This guy down the beach from us built this in 10 hours, it was Amazing! He would light it at night so it looked like it was breathing fire

The water was So Glassy the whole time we were there.

Heading home :(
