Lake Powell has come and gone. Brock and I went to Lake Powell for a week and we left Payton with my mom and sister. It was really hard leaving him for so long I don't think we will ever do it again, but it would have been a lot harder to have him there. The house boat wasn't working right so we spent the whole week in the marina. That was kind of a bummer but it was still so much fun. It was insanely hot and the water was beautiful! We spent the majority of the time surfing but we also water skied, wake boarded, knee boarded, and tubed. There was also the cliff jumping and cove exploring. We had a lot of fun getting to know Erin better (Brant's new wife), and hanging out with the rest of the Johanson clan. It was so much fun! WE LOVE LAKE POWELL!!!

The Misner's are in town and we could not be happier!! Jaden and Payton get along so well, and we are so happy to have Jon and Brooke here. It has been a lot of fun so far even if there is not much to do:) We have gone to the park a couple of times so Payton and Jaden can swing while we play frisbee. We have also gone bowling, and watched plenty of movies.... oh yeah and don't forget that I (Cory) was the champion of chinese checkers even with everyone going against me. Jon played volleyball with me thursday night and Brooke even came to watch for a while. It was a lot of fun. Brock would have come but he has to work mornings so he thought it would be a better idea to go to bed:( But good for him. It has been so much fun having them around it makes me so sad that they are going to be gone for at least another four years:( I wish they lived close by but hopefully someday! I am pretty excited to spend two weeks in minnisota with them though, it is going to be so much fun. We are going to go to the Mall of America!!! and also the WaterPark of America and I am sure plenty of other things. Plus my mom will be there for a week with us so it is going to be totally awesome!

The other day we decided to take a short little trip to Lava with our good friends Tyler, Alison, and Tayson. It was a lot of fun. We walked around the town and went through the cute little shops. Then we went to the pizza parlor for lunch. Payton and Tayson are good friends:) We parked by a little park with toys so they could play. They are just to cute! It was a great day even though it was kind of cloudy and a little cold.
