Hike

Yesterday My mom invited me to go on a hike with her and the YW. I have been on this hike many times but it is worth it. I love hiking and getting a little exercies in. The hike is up to stuwart falls its a four mile hike. once you get to the water fall you realize that every step you took to get there was worth it. No matter how many times I go on this hike everytime I come down the hill and see the water fall it takes my breath away and all I can say is WOW as the mist is blowing in my face and I feel the cool breez all over my body. Nothing is better then achiving your goals and taking that last step to achive it and then having it be such an amazing outcome. As I sat there eating luch looking at the water fall that I hiked to see a thought came to my mind. Life could be like this you make a goal and achive it in the end its like this amazing water fall that you have been wainting so long to see. So everytime I start to think that I cant achive my goals or start feeling down on my self I am going to think of this water fall that I worked so hard to get to and once I get to this amazing sight it was worth every hard hill I had to climb or every rock I had to step over. In the end it will be worth achiving my goals










Its always tradition to go to the stawberry days parade. I love the parades being out in the sun and spending an afternoon with the family. I love little mya in most pics I am holding her or anut ange.



Rodeo

I love summer nights going to all the rodeos, firework shows, carnivals, and the concerts in the parks. On thursday I took my little brother to the Strawberry days rodeo, while my mom and dad went to a wedding. After the wedding they come to the rodoe so we got to spend a little family time together. I also got to go on friday night with a date. I had a great time it was a very good rodeo. Thank you mom for working for me so that I could go.






Just another AMAZING thing that happens at powell. I am so greatful for such a neat place to go and get away form the world and spend some time with such an amazing family. Thank you aunt shauna for letting me come and spend some time with you and your girls.



We got to see the damn it was really neat. my aunt shuana has never seen the dam befor so it was really cool the water was so deep and blue.




while in lake powell we camp, so in order to get "clean" we have to bath in the lake. so everynight we go skinny dipping enough said.

One this day we set out for an afternoon andventure. we wanted to go sight seeing because we have never seen this side of lake powell. We packed a lunch hoping to find some shade so eat under and on are way we went. We found this really cool bay that had some really pretty rocks we went really slow just looking at the rocks and how cool the colors were. Its was another really fun day. we did not find any shade to eat lunch under, but thats what the jump in parties are for










"The Taco" This tub and aunt shauna driving will just about kill ya. shelby and I rode this alot the first day and got throwin around like little rag dolls. For some odd reason everytime we feel off we just got back on so it must have been fun. The next day I was done for, my body was so swore I was not going to get back on that tub again, but sure enough I did.



Wake boarding was a big part of the trip. I only got to wake board once though, the board is a little to big for me and my feet kept slipping out of the board. I had fun while it lasted. After that I just watched shelby and shany wake board they are really good and fun to watch.






"The wienie" lets just say this thing will give you the ride of your life. When aunt Shauna gets that look on her face you better hang on. The three of us had a lot of fun and some good laughs on that wienie


Becasue this was a chick trip down to powell we had to get a pic infront of the NO FEAR house boat.


Lake powell here we come! Shelby, Shayna and I found out very fast that the back set of my grandpas tuck is very little to be stuck back there for six hours. Shelby and Shayna got to take a little nap. As for shany shauna and I, we stayed up chatting and taking pics. The ride down was very long,but enjoyable and very worth the six hour drive.

*TTA - Five Senses - Sound*

I decided that I am going to start to do the TTA' s. If you cant guess this is me screaming my lungs out, but its for a very good reason. I was at the Rascel flatts concert. There is nothing better then going to a concert and listening to the sounds of great music being played over huge speakers. To go along with great music you get to hear the sounds of all the poeple around you screaming having a great time, just like you are. speaking for my family they got to hear the sound of my high pitched annoying scream the whole concert. If I would have to take my guess I dont think they appreciated the sound to much this day, thanks to my voice.

Yesterday my dad, little brother and I went on a nice horse ride up Alpine canyon. It was such a nice day, the sun was out the whole time, I could not ask for a better way to spend my Sunday afternoon. I love being outside and enjoying the nice weather. We met some friends up there that were camping. Ate a little grub and rested a little. Then set out for a pretty long ride. We ran into some problems along the way, like daxton getting bucked off jake (the mule), nothing to serious happend to him, just lots of brusing. We are lucky that he was not hurt really bad and that he is a tough cowboy. Also my dad was dipping his head in the river to cool off and lost his hat, he was pretty upset about it. Over all it was a great day we all made it home safe and sound in one piece, which made mom really happy.

SUMMER



When I look at these pictures two things come to mind, LAKE POWELL and SUMMER. These pictures were taken last summer during our girls trip down to powell. I just have to announce to everyone next weekend the girls and I are going to be taking a girls trip down to powell!!! It will be the first powell trip of the season with many more to come. I am very excited for summer to be here and the chance to go on lots of vacations with my family and friends. Mostly I am excited for lake powell, because we all know that A BAD DAY AT POWELL IS BETTER THAN A GOOD DAY AT HOME!!! (the lake powell motto)
