Lake Powell

The past few summers I have taken a week and gone to Lake Powell with a few friends.

Last summer this trip didn't happen. Everyone was busy with work and a other summer activities and I was busy dating Kelly.

This year it worked out and we got to spend 6 days in the heat and sun, boating  every day.

I was extra excited because this was Kelly's first time to Lake Powell. His family never really went boating so I'm determined to get him into boating. Its one of my favorite things of summer.

I love this picture

As far as make up school goes that is getting put on hold for now, Maybe until next spring when weddings get crazy again. Instead were thinking of doing something else with money.

Something inspired by these two quotes

Red Rock Wake Park

 

 

Last weekend Red Rock Wake Park in St George had their grand opening and first competition. It was so much fun to take a little weekend and go down there. Kelly and I rode down with my dad and Michelle. It was fun to spend time with them and spend the weekend in the sun. I love summer so much, I spend the rest of the year looking forward to summer and playing out in the hot sun.

I didn't take too many pictures unfortunately but I took a few of the competition. 

This is my favorite picture

Hopefully Ill be heading there a few more times this summer and fall...maybe I'll even get good enough to do those jumps and rails...ok probably not but its still fun to watch!

Here is a sweet little video of the competition

Seaside

For the 4th of July we went with Kelly's family to Oregon. His family has a beach house there And they usually go a couple times a year. This was my first time being able to go with them and it was my first time going to Oregon. 

 I loved this sign at all the beaches. Watch for Sneaker Waves...

 On some tower thing..I dont remember what its called all I know is we threw little wooden airplanes off it.

 4th of July fire on the beach

 Exploring a cave that had starfish all over. In California I can only remember seeing starfish a few times and they were always tiny. These things were huge!

 Very different beaches than California

 I think I was freezing the entire time in Oregon. I'm used to hot beaches, but now being back in Utah where its been extremely hot, Oregon weather is sounding great.

 The sunsets were always pretty

 Every morning everyone would go out looking for shells, one morning they even went clamming. (Clams are slightly gross looking)

 walking the beach

 The "front yard" of the beach house, just a little walk over the dunes to the ocean

 It took almost 20 hours for us to get home...

 we got lost in the middle of no where

I love traveling, even small trips are great. It would be my dream to go out of the country within the year...Im not sure that will happen but it sounds amazing. Thailand or Costa Rica sound like awesome adventures

I might just have to settle for a trip to Disneyland and hopefully get a lot of trips to 

Red Rock Wake Park.

but whatever happens....
