Our friends, the Todds, invited us to go to Lake Powell with them.
Not going to turn that down!
It was awesome! The weather was great. The company was awesome. Boats ran great. Fishing was going great.
Here is Brent skiing. He always skis in this hat. Don't ask me how it stays on!
Brent and his brother-in-law Jeff.
Dean took a bad spill waterskiing and hurt his leg. He decided he better give it a rest for a day or so, so I didn't get a picture of him skiing yet. Dean had a feeling that he needed to go on a boat ride and check his messages...
He was right. A baby was born early for one of his adoptions. Dean had to rush home. Had to go home 4 days early! 'Bout killed me!
There was no way around it.
Still glad we went down, and glad we came back.
Dean spent Thursday and Friday at the hospital and the courthouse getting everything in order for the adoption.
Saturday, we decided to head to the lake....not quite Lake Powell, but it would do!
Dex is helping Grandpa Deaner get the boat ready!
Once again, the boat ran great, the company was awesome, the weather was perfect.
(no fishing on this outing)
Chenelle decided she was going to learn how to slalom ski....and that she did! Good job Chenelle!
Jordan and Chenelle came with us. Too hard to explain this picture...but believe me, it really was funny!
It so fun to have Manda and Dex come with us. Dex is not intimidated by the water or the boat.
Caitlyn also came with us. Dex prefers Grandma Ej, unless Caitlyn is around...Caitlyn "trumps" everyone one when it comes to who Dex lets hold him.
Not sure how many more trips Manda and the twins are going to be willing to go on with us...the babies didn't really like it when the boat ride got bumpy.
It was a great day at the lake!
Came home and got cleaned up and headed up to Grandma and Grandpa Ellis' surprise birthday party. Grandma and Grandpa are 83!
All of their 10 kids and their kids' spouses were there.
(Thanks Chris for letting me use your picture!)
But the best part of the whole day, was when I got the text that Hanna said "YES"!
Today Braden asked Hanna Rushton to marry him.
We are so happy for them.
