Craig and i (mostly the i part) thought this might be our last camping/boating trip we would be able to sleep in our tent. So we packed up the boys and the boat and headed for starvation. The last time we used our full size air mattress we decided it was not made for two...and for sure not three (counting the baby in my belly). So i had a another plan...lets get 2 air mattresses that way we would each have our own and we would be able to get some sleep.
The first night went pretty good...for me that is. Craig's air mattresses had a hole in it and after a few hours he was on the ground. So the second night he bought a fix it kit...but that did not work either cuz he was on the ground that night too. To make matters worse that night it rained and hailed and the wind blew all night long.
The dogs got freaked out in the tent and put their own large doggie door in one side of the tent. UGG! The third night we slept in the dumpy hotel in Duchesne! The tent (used 3 times TOTAL) made its way to the trash can at the lake and i guess this might be the end of tenting for the colberts.
Despite the sleeping accommodations and a little bit of rain we still had a good time! Good friends, a couple of poker games and a little sunshine here and there and it was fun!

doggie casino night
Our neighbor was in charge of doing the photo shoot for the doggie casino night...a fundraiser for no more homeless pets. Craig so kindly volunteered his time and talents to paint the back drop for the photo event. So we piled the boys in the car and attended the fundraiser. The event was in the Hilton hotel downtown...i have to say it was a little funny to see all these dogs running around. The Hilton is a nice hotel and i am sure there were some guests there that were wondering why all these doggies were runing around?? Anyway it was Copper and Oscar's first time downtown, in a nice hotel and their first elevator ride! I might be a little partial...but i think they are both very photogenic pooches!

fundraiser poker night
We had a fundraiser poker night to raise money for our friend who's husband passed away at the sand dunes. Craig and I both did not play super good...but it was fun and for a good cause. Thanks to all our friends who donated and those who came!

lake powell

I have wanted to go to Lake Powell ever since we bought our boat a few years ago. So finally when we make plans to go i am pregnant and cant wakeboard, ski or surf! Oh well a weekend in the sun with good friends was worth it. Craig and i decided we would rent us a motorhome to have a little ac and a nice bed to sleep in. Well we made it about 3 hours before we were broke down at the little mechanic shop in Beaver! Rentals...Ugg!! Luckily Craig talked to the owner of the shop who was very nice and stayed late to get us fixed. Thankfully...we were back on the road in no time! Powell was really beautiful. We camped at Lone Rock which is by the Wahweap Marine.
Hanging out in the boats!

look who's 30!
Happy 30th Honey! Craig turned 30 on May 25. I am glad you had to do this before me....mine is creeping up on me too i guess. We celebrated all the May birthday's together that is why there are so many people behind the cake.
