Sammy and Ben loved riding on the boat
Sammy loved the Ski Skimmer (its like a horseshoe type ski). She was really good at it too (which made her daddy happy)!
Uncle Brad helping Ben get started on the ski skimmer
Ben loved the jet skis....he would scream (with excitement) the entire time! He always wanted to go FASTER!

Perilynn (Benson's sister) planned this whole Fear Factor competition....it was so cute and all the kids loved it. Ben and Sammy had to eat bugs out of the mud without using their hands (pudding and fake bugs).
Ben loves his cousin Bryce.
4th of July....we had our own fireworks (as did the rest of the lake). Its so fun (and sort of scary) to watch the fireworks on the lake.
One of Ben's favorite things about Lake Powell...his Uncle Troy!

I told Ben to watch for Daddy to come back and he grabbed the binoculars and watched the water...silly kid!
Sammy tried hard to get up on double skis...maybe next year! I was so proud of her for trying though...doesn't she look cute?

We had a blast at Lake Powell...I didn't get a whole group shot but we had almost 50 people there. The kids loved playing with their cousins, playing in the water, and sleeping under the stars!

ok so how fun was THAT trip??? Looks like a blast and I am shocked that Sammie could get up on those things. She is still pretty young for that. glad you had fun. we need to walk again.
You have been having some fun girl! Glad you're all having a good summer and have gotten away from the heat....
I wondered where you've been! I figured you just fell off the blogging world's edge. Your vacation looks like a BLAST! What fun times!
Sounds like a fun trip. Is that your second home. I feel like I just read about you going before!!
That looks so fun!! I could not believe how great your kids did on the skimmer!! They are awesome!!
I would love to hear what your sister in law did for the "Fear Factor" stuff!! I would love to do something like that for a family reunion we have in a week!! What a blast!
Where do you get those little ski's for kids??
Let me know..I know kenna would try it!! We need to get one to keep in out boat!
That look like so much fun! We have never been to Powell..I think this needs to change!
What a fun trip! That's awesome that the kids can ski on that skimmer thingy...I've never seen one of those before.
Those pictures of your kids skiing are so cute! Those pictures make me want to go to Lake Powell so bad! How FUN!!
yeah- not rubbing it in AT ALL with all the great pics. Thanks Kyle ;) Looks like so so so much fun. I love that place- I'm glad you enjoyed it twice this year- punk!
That looks like so much fun! Aren't your own fireworks fun. I played with some here on the 4th. By the way I LOVE the new picture at the top of your blog. I hope you had a nice break from the hot, AZ sun!
Your family is always doing fun things!
So I've had the Ingrid Michaelson song in my head for such a long time, but could not figure out where I'd heard it! It was driving me crazy! Now I have to go buy her CD.
Seriously. That's so not fair...2 trips for you this summer?!@@# I'm not going to lie...I'm a little ticked right now! It doesn't help that my hubby is there right now with the priests from our ward. Punk. It seems that your kids are natural "lakers" and you have finally given in! So dang fun! I also can't believe how many people were in your group! Crazy big mormon families! Gotta LOVE them!
Looks like you guys are always doing such fun things! What a good mom you are giving your kiddos such good memories. They will never forget. Hope I can come walking and talking with you fun ladies!!!
How fun!! Gosh you guys have been busy having fun. Thats so nice of your mom to keep Nate. Your kids look like they had a blast on the lake.
fun times!!!!!! I love lake powell!!!!
How flippin' FUN!!!
How fun. I can't believe how well your kids did out there on the water. I am jealous, they have serious skills!
