Lake Powell Trip

For Mother's Day weekend- we went down to Arizona to visit Ben's mom and dad. (And his brother and his family, and his other brother's wife!)   Pam, the kids and I left Thrusday- and stopped in at Kolob Canyon in Zion's National Park on our way down. 


Kolob Canyon is beautiful!

Hiking a trail in Zions.

More Hiking

A Little Lizzard that SCARED Bug to death--  Good thing he has his littlest brother to protect him from the lizzards.

We went to the Glen Canyon Dam visitor's center- Roo's doing his Jr. Ranger papers.

Pam, Bug and Doodle waiting for our tour of the Dam.

How's that go?  "On the dam tour"

View from the bottom- it's just MASSIVE!

Earning their Jr. Ranger Badges. (I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Junior Ranger Program.  We earn the badges everywhere we can!)

Bug, Doodle and Nana in the house in the Rocks near Lee's Ferry.

I Look around, can't find Doodle- where is he?  On top of the BIGGEST rock he could find.

Roo and his cousin C playing in a cave in the rocks.

I thought this was so sweet- Roo's helping C down the rocks.
 We rented us a boat and went out on Lake Powell on Saturday- It was GREAT fun!
Getting the fishing poles set up

Me and My fishin buddy "C" (I had the pretty pink pole- so she got to fish with me. ;)

Doodle's hungry (again!?) so he decided to try a worm.

We had a wonderful time in Page- THANKS so much to Ben's mom and dad, and Bill and especially Raellen for letting us come visit!
