A week of Insaneness... yes I made that up

This post should have come a few days ago but I was waiting to get a video I wanted to include. Last week we went on a vacation with my moms entire side of the family to Lake Powell! My grandparents brought their ski boat and fishing boat and rented a house boat to stay on. The whole week was so much fun and when you're on vacation with the Dodge's, you know it's gonna be good! But I'll let the pictures do most of the talking :).

The drive to Lake Powell








The helicopter actually landed on this boat. Awesome.




This wall has a fish towards the top and mountains next to raging waters on the bottom. Hard to see but really neat.






We had our own little quiet cove!
























Unfortunately Quinn started getting a fever a couple days into the trip.






Fishing off the houseboat








When we all got bored with swimming, kayaking, tubing, and wakeboarding, we headed out to the back deck to test out the slide... Here are some of my favorite pictures.
This was the only picture I had of me on the slide. Sorry!




 And when that wasn't fun anymore we decided to switch things up with a contest!







 But of course that got old eventually too. So what did we do? We built a 100 ft water slide!


With a ramp at the end! Warning!  Do not try this at home! Let me tell you my family is crazy! This is SOOO dangerous! haha













 Oh and we thought it would be cool to jump people, so we did that too!








 And then we got it on video with a gopro camera... I'll upload the video later when I have it.


I didn't get a chance to go down the water slide, but I did jump off the top of the house boat!








One of the nights we went over to my great uncle's houseboat to have a party! 50+ people on a giant houseboat with glowsticks and bright lights=FUN! And cool pictures!









And the next night we had fireworks!







Unfortunately we had to leave a couple days early because of Jared's work and Quinn's fever, but the 5 days  we had there were so much fun! I can't wait till we can go again!
