Our first ever Lake Powell Trip

Ok so Lake Powell where the temp is over 100 degrees....7 teenage boys with only one of them being ours.....Ke'Nia, Me and Norma Jean the only girls.....hmmmm, wasn't exactly all over the idea but knew I couldn't pass up the opportunity....The Outcome....A wonderfully, fantastic time!  The water, the sites, the company, the food, was all PERFECT!  The Baltazar family extended the invite and the boys invited their friends and off we went to play.  We left a day earlier and checked out the Indian Ruins with our little family.  Our first trip without our Missionary..... a huge hole, but we managed to smile the whole trip.  A friendly game of survivor whenever the opportunity arose  but really had not a moment of down time.  Injury's were minimal, sunburns slight, and good moods abundant!  
Beautiful blooms on our hike

Amazing..to think that there was once people who worked and lived together in this well thought out community housing
