1. Drive to Lake Powell one evening after work. Get there about midnight.
2. Board a beautiful 73' house boat and get a great nights sleep. You're kids have to be amazing sleepers like mine. And a little benadryl helps too.
3. First thing in the morning leave the marina to find a place to park the boat and play.
NOTICE: This next step is important, if it's excluded you'll fail to complete your vacation in 24 hours.
4. While attempting to park the boat, the driver should accidentally hit some large rocks that are hidden well beneath the surface of the water.
5. Damage to the lovely houseboat should be significant enough that you'll hear the words "Grab the buckets boys, we're bailing water!"
6. Quickly repack your bags while the boat is towed back to the marina. Be sure to get off the boat when its at the dock before the pull it out of the water. Otherwise you'll be passing your babies down and scaling the side of the boat while its trailored. It will be at least 10 feet above your head.
7. Load up the car with babies and all your stuff, and head home. You should get home about 24 hours from the time you left the day before.
Unfortunately you won't have any pictures to show for your vacation as the excitement and adventures will keep you too busy to have time to get your camera out. But the memories will last forever.
Sad. We would have had such a fun weekend. Maybe next year. :(

Oh bummer! I feel disappointed for you - and I wasn't even there. We need to play - it's been too long since I've held little Ruby. :-)
Ah Lake Powell--always memorable.
Thanks for being such a good sport about that crazy situation. There will definitely be a next time with a little more relaxation and a lot less adventure.
