Blow out! Only an hour into our trip we lost a tire. As the boys changed the tire, Susie said, "told you so!" She had told Steve to get new tires, those men...they think they always know best! Brandon made quick work of the fix and we were on the road again. When we stopped for breakfast in Price, Steve went and bought a new tire.
Minutes after getting the house boat anchored down, little dude (Owen) was ready to be out in the water.

Relaxing, getting some sun, and enjoying a good read.
The really cold ride to Rainbow Bridge. The entire two hour boat ride we were wrapped in blankets trying to stay warm. The site was amazing once we got there and it was warm.

Our next visit was some Native American Ruins. Owen likes to go inside their houses. Because we had to do a little swimming to get to the trail we don't have pictures from of the ruins, just the swim.

Owen fell in love with the jet ski's this trip, that is all he wanted to do. He also wanted everyone to ski or wakeboard off the back of them. I spent a few hours a day on the jet ski with Owen as he drove us in circles around the lake. We also had a great time just hanging on the boat, doing some tubing and enjoying the sun shine.

Brandon decided to use the head strap for the Go Pro around his chest to catch some good video. He got some great video, but he couldn't get it off, it was a great laugh.
