Lake Powell

Shaye and I went on our first ever mini vacation without Peyton last week. We had been invited to go to Lake Powell with some friends from Shaye's work. At first we planned to take Peyton but as it got closer decided that it would be much more enjoyable but especially less stressful if we didn't bring him sense we would be staying on a house boat and I would just be nervous with him around the water. We were so grateful that Shaye's family was able and willing to let Peyton stay with them for a few days and him and Jen got to get reacquainted so that was great for them. It all turned out great and it was better that we didn't bring him but I was so sad to leave him...it was really rough. The first night I was pretty sad and lonely missing him but things got better and we really enjoyed relaxing and having fun in the sun!!
The weather was hot, hot, hot!! But the water was perfect temperature and you definitely wanted to get in cause it was so hot!
Shaye wakeboarding...pretty great scenery too.
Nice air!
Looking pretty cool enjoying the ride.
Ready for dinner on the boat.
More Shaye wakeboarding



And yes I even got up there, woohoo!
It was fun but I was feeling it the next day from crashing like I'm about to in this one, ouch! 
And of course we had some great tube time.
Shaye on the taco tube. This thing was brutal, not a comfortable ride:) We had a great time and we were completely exhausted when we got home! We were so happy to see Peyton and know that he had a great time while we were away. I will do another post with some pictures of him on his little vacation without Mom and Dad!
