We had so much at Lake Powell. We went with the Jacksons and the Swensons and the Maxfield crew came to visit our houseboat two of the afternoons! So it was great to have both familys together on the Lake. Pretty amazing how that worked out! Thanks Jacksons and Maxfield's for the wonderful trip to Utah and Lake Powell! We always wish we could stay longer! We love you!

Jocelyn's Dance Recital

Here is little Jocelyn after her dance recital. This year she got to do 2 dances, a tap and a ballet one. She did really good. (especially compared to last year- where she was a little scared and did very few moves) She really loved wearing her cute costume and wearing make-up! I was one of the parent helpers so I got to help her class get ready and help them on and off the stage. She also loved the medal her teacher gave her and the flowers her father gave her. Good Job Jocey! This is her trying on her costume when we got it and it is showing the tap shoes.
