Our home away from home!


Us being silly...this is after we got home from our trip and we were a little tired and loopy thus this wonderful picture. Notice what is in Chris' hand, can't put that down (ha ha ha!)
Before we left of powell we walked to Wal-Mart and I bought Liddy some M&M's for the ride home. When we got home this is what I found! MMMmmmm GOOD!

Lydia playing in her cool pool on top of the house boat. By the end of the day the water was too hot for her to get in...we joked we could've used it as our own hot tub!




Playing in the pool!



She is such a silly little girl so happy. She had so much fun and is very comfortable on the water and in the boat. Besides the fact that she was concieved in Powell she is definitely my lake powell baby!





eating toast with Grandpa!






Chris taking a break from the heat!







Justin and Linds were such good sports they came down Friday or should I say Saturday at about 3:00 am. We tried to pack as much in as we could and they were huge helps despite the fact that I'm sure they were very tired.



Ok so I know that you are all probably so sick of hearing about Lake Powell but who are we kidding we love the place. We went down for a short weekend this time and it was a lot of fun. It was HOT it got up to 113 and the water was 88...needless to say we spent the majority of our spare time in the water. Lydia had fun as always in the pool that my parents bought for her to use at their house and at Powell. We did a lot of water skiing, wake boarding and surfing. Layed out a ton. Went to see the indian ruins up forgotten canyon and got tricked into hiking to some man made fire pit that looked like Indian ruins. Ate way more than I should but hey "everything is better at powell" and watched some good movies. It was so much fun and a nice break for us all. Thanks again mom and dad for yet another amazing trip!

I've said it before, I'll say it agian....I LOVE Lake Powell too! Unfortunatly since Grandma Miller's passing (Colby's grandma), we haven't been invited since. Oh well, I guess that we are not in the cool group. (J/K haha!)

Oh my, how jealous am I? I love Powell too.... and it seriously cracked me up (I don't know why) that Lydia was conceived there, because so was Laylah. Chris looks VERY content in that first picture.... what a cute couple :)

Baby Girl

Baby Girl
This is our baby girl at 16 weeks. It was such an amazing thing to see her moving and count all of her fingers and toes for the first time. I know I bawled and Chris won't admitt it, but he was pretty emotional as well.

It's a girl!

She's going to be a dancer
