Our trip to Lake Powell was SO much fun! It was nice not to have a schedule, we got to do whatever we wanted. One day we went into Page for lunch and stopped at some view points, we napped and took the boat out for a ride every afternoon - it was a great couple of days.

The shortcut is open! This shortcut leads to Gunsight and Padre Bay and hasn't been open for years because the water level has been too low. Cody and I drove through it - so much faster to get around when it's open!
We were so excited to come home and see the boys! Cache is as talkative as ever, he's such a clever little guy - we're pretty sure he's going to out-wit us before too long. Cole is getting SO close to walking, I can't believe it. At Church Cody was holding one of Cole's hands and the little guy was just cruising along like it's no big deal. Can you believe he'll be 1 a the end of August? Yeah, neither can I. Once we got home we took the boys out to Barnes and Noble to get some Home Plan magazines (we're thinking of building). Cache loved the kids section and was quick to pick out a book he wanted (he LOVES books). Lucky for me, the book has a button you can push to make noise...love that.
So yes, now we are home and back to routine - we took the kids to the Dentist this morning and Cache handled it like a champion. Now I'm off to the grocery store to stock up on essentials - I have lots to get to...nothing like a few days on vacation to create chaos build up at home!

Ah yes, the craziness that follows vacations. Love the pictures, you are so dang cute and skinny! I have never been to Lake Powell and all these pictures are really making me want to go there, plus I'm a warm water kind of girl so I think it was made for me. Perhaps someday I'll get to go.
Awww so muy sad we couldn't go...next time, next time...
Oh how I missed you. Just knowing I couldn't get a hold of you . . . looks like you two had a total blast. Much jealousy from my corner.
Um - funny story, my phone totally worked down there. So you could have called and I could have made you jealous over the phone!
These pictures make me so jealous! Oh how we need to get down there with you next time!
So glad y'all took some time for yourselves-- all parents deserve a nice break! Thanks for sharing the gorgeous pics, too.
It sounds like that was a great vacation. Good for you taking a deserved break. Tim and I went to Costa Rica for our 5th. It was a blast. Great memories to last a long time. Those are breathtaking pics. What a beautiful place!
