Lake Roosevelt!!

We went to the lake...again! It was so much fun!! Kameron and I stayed the night in the boat! on Friday and got rained out on Saturday. Didn't even stay past 8:30AM it was raining so much! So we drove to Thatcher and hung out there until Sunday afternoon and Kam and I drove to the lake to find a good camping spot. I even had to drive the boat by myself while Kam went and drove the truck to a different dock! So we camped out and than the DeRusha clan came up during the day on Saturday. Kameron wanted to get some good fishing in since we got rained out. And boy did he catch some monsters! It was so fun being with everyone on the boat. And wakeboarding and trying out the tube thing. Wasn't a big fan but it was fun to see the little kids get so excited! So much fun!! Just so many memories that come with the smell of the boat and the lake. I hope we always can go to the lake! Can't wait to do it again!!
So the top two are of our sleeping arrangment on the boat. We got there late and had to hurry cause it got dark and we wernt prepared to drive the boat at night. Yeah didn't sleep very good but something I can say I've done. And the other is us getting rained on. A lot.
Oh just a side note, I forgot our pillows, matches for the lantern, cream cheese for our breakfast, and I didn't have a rain jacket. Thankgoodness it didn't rain that Saturday night! And I need to take more pictures! :)
Kameron caught about 4 fish. One on saturday and the others on Saturday morning. A couple got away from him but overall it was a great fishing trip!


Other news: We have decided to move across town. No price change which stinks but we will get our box spring and have a place that actually fits our washer and dryer!! We move the end of June. Before we know it we will by flying to Minnesota dontchya know! Time is just flying. I'm just glad we get to spend it with family!!

Lake Mead-Take Two

So we went to Lake Mead, again. It was fun although I was not too excited about the idea at first. We have been driving (long ways) for the past month and I was looking forward to a lazy saturday, but my ever adventurous husband set up this trip with the help of his brother and I guess somewhere in there I decided to go. Cade's wife Caryn decided to go too which was fun! Lots of fishing and Towing....yes, as you can see below a stranded group of river rafters asked if we could help them out cause it was too windy for them. We sure were a sight haha. Good service right? well these people insisted they pay us (it did take us quite a while going 5 miles per hour) we didn't take the beer they wanted to give us but the $200 sure was nice! Yeah. crazy. I wish I could through around $200 bucks. Morale of the story: Be nice, it might pay off.
So life update, Kameron is finnished with school pretty much and should get some good grades. He'll have a little break than start up on summer school. And our next Big evnt would probably be Minnesota!!! I'm still sad my brothers can't go, but I'm sure we'll still have a good time! Lots of fishing and Family time!! That's in July though so we still have a couple of months to save our pennies. We are thinking of moving from our home we have now, cause of rent going up, but we'll see if Flagstaff has anything else to offer. Cross your fingers. Oh and I got a new phone. which is exciting because Kameron had pretty much nicknamed my phone "the dinasuar" It's a pretty cool phone: evoke qa4. Still getting used to all the touch screen, which can be pretty irritating sometimes, but it's cool.

These are the folks we gave a lift too. Sorry Caryn I'm too lazy to do any cropping :)
Oh and these people had been river rafting for 25 days! Count 'em...Six rafts.....!
