Summer/ Maxfield LP!

Wow it has been an extremely busy summer. Taylor and I have worked and played as hard as I possibly can! It has been so much fun.

We have celebrated our 4th year wedding anniversary (yes it really has been 4yrs! I still can't believe it), we have done 2 weeks in Lake Powell (with a possible 3rd week coming), we have done several boating day trips, Taylor has been to California twice, and with the many family parties it has been a very fun summer.

We spent 2 straight weeks in Lake Powell (heaven on earth for Taylor and I). The first week we spent with the Maxfield's. We headed down on Tuesday morning, we were camping in the camp ground at the Wahweep Marina. Almost everyone in the Maxfield family has very nice motor home so it was the easiest and cheapest option. Taylor and I set up a tent in between the motor homes. It was extremely hot this week and sleeping in a tent didn't help the matter but we had a blast anyway. We arrived on Tuesday afternoon, set up camp and launched the boat. That afternoon we spent driving around looking for a good day beach for the whole family to enjoy. After a couple hours and a whole tank of gas we found a great beach. It is was near Lone Rock on the Utah side of Lake Powell. This portion of the lake is where a lot of people camp and it did not disappoint! The beach was PACKED with people, thousands of people with tents, motor homes, etc parked right on the beach. It was insane, it looked just like a city! We set up camp several minutes down the Lake and it was perfect. It was a smooth beach with lots of space and the lake was not very crowded, even with the city of campers only a few minutes away!

 We spent the week skiing, wakeboarding, surfing, Sky Skiing, and tubing. A lot of the family tried the Sky Ski and a couple wanted to get there own. It is fun teaching new people, it gives you lots of laughs and entertainment. Taylor and I took our boat down and we had at least 1 person from every family on our boat at some point. It was a lot of fun. We even had Andrea's son, Devan, on our boat the entire week. He was so funny and cute. He would get up and eat breakfast really quickly and then  sit at our campsite, which was right next to his, and wait until we loaded the boat. He jumped right in and stayed with us the whole time. He even tried the skyski with Taylor! It was a lot of fun. At night we played games and headed to bed because we were so tired. Taylor and I made it the entire week without any sunburns, something I was very proud of because we still had another week with my family.

The Maxfield's left on Saturday morning and that left Taylor and I with a whole day until my family got there. We got a hotel in the Marina for Saturday night and I was so glad. Soft bed, airconditioner, and tv was just what we needed to get ready for the next week. We were so tired that we ate dinner at 4 and then headed back to the hotel. We watched a movie and I feel asleep at 7pm. Taylor realized I was out for the night so he got ready, which of course woke me up at 8. We were both out like a light again by 9pm and slept 12 hrs! It was so nice and relaxing after being in the sun for 5 straight days.

We had so much fun with the Maxfield's.... coming soon pictures!
