Hyrum was so brave this year. He jumped off the house boat into the water, wasn't scared when he was dumped off the tube. 
Hyrum knee boarded for the very first time and stayed up after his very first try. He did fantastic! He rode the knee board for a long time. In fact, while he was knee boarding, we passed another boat that stood up and clapped for him. He was pretty proud of himself and I was proud of him.
Emmy and Ben only went on the tube once and that was enough for them. Ben actually didn't even make it for a tube run since once the boat started to pull his tube started to sink (since there was so much weight in the front) and scared him and he wanted off.
Ben loved squirting everyone with the water gun.
Emmy loved pushing people(adults and older kids) off the side of the boat.
All three of them loved playing in the dirt and helping Aunt Denise make a magnificent dragon.
The kids loved riding in the boats watching people water ski, wake board etc.
The kids loved it when Papa would let them have a turn driving a boat.
We enjoyed playing various games with everyone.
Of course, since it gets so hot at Lake Powell we spent a lot of time it in the water playing.
My Aunt Lisa made a fun walk way to what we called the Mermaid Lagoon. The kids thought it was so cool when they went and played there. The kids did a great job swimming with "no hands."
The kids also enjoyed rides in the paddle boat. 
Feeding the fish the left over bread was also a big hit.
Our trip to Lake Powell was amazing and we enjoyed every minute.
I was so lucky to have so much family there that helped me watch out and take care of the kids. My kids loved all the attention and fun games that they were able to be apart of with all the cousins. Our time in Lake Powell was the perfect addition to our Utah trip.
