Park City and Lake Jordanelle

Debbie and Paul were staying up in Park City at their condo the week that we were planning to stay with them, so they invited us to come stay with them there. Brea and her girls were there, so the kids were more then excited to go stay there.
When we got there Tuesday evening we swam then had dinner. The kids were having such a great time playing that bedtime wasn't until around 11pm. Corrine got girl cousin sleepover with Brooklyn and Aleigha!
Corrine and Aleigha instantly reconnected after playing together in February.
Corrine is about 8 months older.

The next day they were planning to go to Lake Jordanelle to paddle board and kayak and invited us to come along. The kids LOVED it. The kids had such a great time paddling around the lake and exploring "Treasure Island", which after exploring it they changed the name to "Bird Poop Island!"
There was a group of kids in a junior sailboat class that came in and out of the water by use. Their sailboats were so cute and so fast!
The group next to us had alot of young kids. They had a boat that would take some kids and parents out on to intertube. At one point there were 12 little kids under 8, 5 moms and 1 dad. The kids started getting restless, so the dad started making sand castles with them. Then he let them put wet sane all in his hair. Next thing we knew he was covered head to toe in wet sand. You could see his eyes and nothing else. What a dad!

This is my favorite picture of the day. Utah and it's mountains and lakes are beautiful. I love the peacefulness of the mountains, the amazing clouds and the boys in the kayak. I would love to do this more often!





Corrine and Aleigha got caught out in the lake with the wind blowing them out farther, so mom went to the rescue with Rebecca in tow. On the very long, hard way back in Rebecca fell asleep until the paddle bonked her a few times!
We had such a great time at the lake. Today left the kids and mom wanting to get our own paddle boards and kayaks to use at home!
Back at the condo we swam some more then had dinner before heading down the mountain to Debbie & Paul's house.
