We LOVE Bear Lake!!!!!

We just got back from the funnest vacation. We rented this great cabin about 30 minutes from Bear Lake. It was really nice and had plenty of room for our whole family. All our kids and grand kids were able to come, and we had the best time ever. We can't wait to do it again!

We celebrated Hailey's 4th birthday at the cabin.

Krista got up early and had everything decorated so fancy for her Princess party.

She made the cutest princess cake! Blow out those candles Hailey!!!

It was fun to see our kids having such a great time just being together, even cooking dinner was a family activity. It was nice to have so much help.

Every morning Dan came around in this fancy truck to pick up our garbage. The last day, he took anyone who wanted to go for a ride, for a little spin, then let Jamie, Jordan, Emily and Matt drive it themselves. It was a crank engine, and Emily and Matt even started it! Pretty fun!!!

We spent 2 days at the lake. Some of the kids rented a couple of Sea Doos, and had a great time cruising the lake. Here's Emily taking one for a spin.

Mike was exhausted after two weeks of working on our kitchen, so he gladly volunteered to hold any sleeping baby while their mom's played on the beach!

Jamie had a great time on the Sea doo!

Thanks Jeffrey for letting us borrow your fun paddle boat!

All of the girls loved playing in the sand.

Oh no Abbie, sand is not for eating!!!!

There were tons of sea gulls and Molly had fun feeding them.

Merijane all ready to ride!

Hailey loved riding on the boat!

Aida LOVED driving the boat. She did not want to stop! It was great because there were no other boats out there, they had the whole lake to themselves!

One of the mornings, right after breakfast, they put the 3 babies down, and put a movie on for the 3 big girls, and all our kids went out and played sand volley ball. It was so fun to look out from the deck, and see them having so much fun!

Dan lived just down the hill from the cabin, and had quite a collection of really old cars. He enjoyed showing them to us, and we enjoyed hearing all about them. He let everyone try them out, and the little girls loved driving them.

Good bye Bear Lake, we will miss you!
