Mini Vacay!

Once again we decided to take advantage of the unusual schedules for our family!  We headed to Lake Havasu for one final trip of the year over Steve's four days off of work.  And again we were blessed with beautiful weather and great family time!  The nights are now cooler in Havasu, which means the water is not as warm, but it didn't seem to bother the kids at all!! 

The wetsuits were packed in case the water was too cold for them, but even though they didn't need to wear the wetsuits they wanted to!  Shane thought it was so fun to wear, he wore it each day!!

"Here I come duckies!!"

Of course Faith and Shane wanted to spend time at the pool! 

On our way under London Bridge and out to the lake and the Colorado River

Faith's latest thing is that she likes to drive the boat - with Steve's guidance of course!  Anytime there weren't any other boats around, she would sit by Steve and ask to drive!  Clearly she loved it!!


On our way back from lunch at Pirate Cove in Moabi, we stopped at a little beach on the river.  As we pulled in, we saw a wild burrow (donkey) eating along the shore!!  It was pretty cool to see!  It kind of blends in with the rocks, but it is against the rocks just to the right of Faith.

Time for a little hike with Daddy after the burrow was long gone up the hill again!

After this stop, we also stopped at the Sand Bar and let the kids run around!  They had so much fun finding foot prints (belonging to dogs!) and imagining what animal they were from!  Shane was sure he saw some Whale, Polar Bear, and Penguin foot prints! 


Since there were not many other guests at the resort, the kids were able to play on their riding toys quite a bit!
