The Turley family in my ward was so nice and invited me and some other singles in our ward to join them on a trip to Lake Powell. I had never been and was so excited. I feel like everyone in Utah always goes to Lake Powell and I had never been. It was so fun and so nice of them to invite us. We met them at Wahweap marina and set out to Padre Bay where they had the house boat anchored. The trip out to the house boat was CRAZY!!!!! There was a storm and there were actual waves on the water and lightning. It was insane. We were all drenched because so much water was coming onto the boat. It was an adventure. It was beautiful! Once we got to the houseboat I got really excited. The first night we got settled in, had a great dinner and then some other people were letting off fireworks. It was so fun to sit up high on a rock and watch fireworks in the dark. So fun!
The sunset from the houseboat on the first night was AMAZING!
The next day we just spent time riding wave runners and playing in the morning. I also got up and went on a short little hike by myself. It is so fun to explore a new area.
Unfortunately during the day on Monday we hit some big waves again and Kylie Turley hurt her neck in the boat. Because it was her neck we decided to take the house boat back to the marina so she could get to the hospital and get checked out. Luckily it was just whiplash, obviously still very painful, but it could have been a lot worse. We decided to just keep the houseboat at the marina and we enjoyed that area of Lake Powell for the rest of our stay.
We had to run into town and so we went over and say horseshoe bend. It is such a pretty spot.
We had so much fun on the boat and wave runners. It is such a fun place to explore.
It was such a fun trip. The Turley's were so nice to invite us to come with them. The last night we watched a movie on the deck of the house boat. I also enjoyed sleeping under the stars on the deck of the house boat. Kylie prepared a fabulous menu, we ate yummy and nutritious food. It was a fun three day get away!
