Bear Lake 2012

We had a really great time in Bear Lake this year. My brother James and his wife Allison were able to fly in from Texas to be with us. We love having them around and constantly try to tempt them into moving back to Utah. The weather was perfect and the lake was actually warm. I have been going to Bear Lake every year for about 15 years now and have never had the water be warm. I could have used a few more days there.


Playing lawn games with Allison, Tiff and James

A little baseball time with Daddy

Until the afternoon rain storm came in

Swinging at the playground on the beach right before bedtime

A traditional cheesy couple shot

Insisting that he be allowed to blow up the raft
Playing in the sun and sand
Until that got too tiring

Hiking with the whole family. Good thing Grandpa was willing to carry boys with tired legs

Best part of the hike: seeing so many ROCKS!
Another afternoon lighting storm that was so intense we were watching the crazy people running on the lawn to see if they were going to be struck dead.
Evan did not enjoy the thunder and ran to Grandpa for some cuddles


Apparently the older kids agreed. After realizing they were missing, we found them hiding in a back bedroom under this blanket to try to stay away from the lighting.


Tiff insisted on staying out in the heavy rain (no lighting) to prove that she was ready for the Ireland/Scotland weather of her mission.

Thanks Bear Lake for another great vacation!
