It has been a long time since any of us has been to Lake Powell with our mom and dad. The last two summers they have been serving a mission so we've gone without them. While we don't have the whole family and miss them it's nice to have some of the group.
Mom was determined that this planned trip was going to happen and no one dared to disappoint her. We are so happy that the days everyone had off work just happened to fit right into her busy chemo schedule. Dad checked her out of the hospital at 1:00 on Friday and were going through beaver about 6pm. We will be here through Saturday the 27th and she has to go back to the hospital on the 30th.
As you can see she is working hard to get the boat ready and we are getting ready to launch. Us kids are learning the things to do that mom normally does. Dad is learning to do the things mom normally does. The boys are learning how to help dad with all the stuff he normally does to free up time and energy for him to do the things that mom normally does and... :). We are all works in progress and we are all grateful to learn new strengths and take on new roles.
