Lake Powell with the Olsen's

So we went to lake Powell the beginning of September its just taken me awhile to get around to posting some pictures of our fun trip!!
I love Lake Powell!! I especially love it this time of year the temperature is great, warm but not miserable and it cools off at night so you can actually sleep.
This year the highlight of the trip was this huge slide and ramp that the boys all put together, it was definitely a group effort and took awhile to assemble not having all the proper tools and equipment, once they got it together they spent many hours taking turns trying to get some major air, a few of the girls where brave enough to try it mostly we just watch taking video and pictures of the guys. They got really brave and got pulled of the ramp by one of the wave runners. They got some serious air and distance, when they finally got the ramp and everything right it broke. There is already talk of how to make the ramp bigger and better for next year. I thought they wre lucky to get away this year with no serious injuries. Next year may be a different story, silly boys.
