Lake Mead 2010

Lake Mead has been a tradition for Chris' family since forever! This year we were very excited for the vacation and looked forward to it for so long! Chris' cousins Jen and Mady from Idaho came with us this year. We decided to camp this year rather than stay in a hotel because we have had so much fun camping and plus we wanted to take our dogs. The trip started out a little rough, the wind was awful, the check engine light on the truck came on, then in Cedar City Chris' dad called and told us we needed to pull over because the truck was putting out white smoke! so we pulled over and there was a huge fuel leak and gas was spilling out everywhere! we had to un-hitch the trailer and the boat and leave them on the side of the freeway, we had to have the truck towed because we didn't want it to blow up.. you don't mess with fuel leaks... so after 2 hours on the side of the road and a quick twist to tighten a hose we were on our way again... we finally made it to lake mead! we had such a blast but the days went by way too fast! the weather was perfect and our campspot was perfect! it was alot of fun and I can't wait till next year! I even faced my fears this year and made myself get on the knee board! it was so much fun and so scary but I didn't downed and I can't wait to go boating again to try it some more! Sad to say that may have been our last boat ride for the year... stupid winter! !! The next thing to look forward to is our FIRST anniversay! I can't believe it has already been a year!
