Beautiful Bear Lake

This was our fourth wonderful year vacationing at Bear Lake. I guess it is now a tradition. A tradition I hope we never stop. It is so much fun to spend a few days at the beach, boating, playing games, EATING, and enjoying the relaxed time with family. I couldn't have asked for a better vacation. The boys are already asking me when we can go back to Bear Lake. I try to smile when I say, "Next summer." Even Elijah can't forget the fun we had. "Beach" is now his favorite word. And if you know how many times a day I hear "backhoe" and "Mia", you would really be impressed. Here are a few pictures to share in the fun!

I love Bear Lake! I am glad you guys had fun. The pictures are great!!

Giselle Rasheta said...

Such cute boys! And yes, we had a blast up there as well. All I can say is that I look like a dork doing the pose you advised...maybe I need some private lessons from you!

I can't wait until next summer, either. And yes, I am impressed that Eli says "beach" more than "backhoe" or "mia!"

I beg to differ with Giselle, no one could look worse than me in that pic. Can someone please photo shop some normal color on my arms so it doesn't look like I'm wearing a shirt under my swimsuit? It's like I'm a polygamist beach goer. But I do love the other pics and we had fun too!

Bear Lake has to be one of the best places on earth. I just wish we made it up there more often! How fun that your family is starting a Bear Lake tradition every summer. Love all of your pictures!

Emily said...

Oh that DOES look fun! That Eli is so darn cute!

I am dying about Patrice being a polygamist beach goer. Hilarious! Just like the trip...fun, family, food! What more could you ask for!

Billie Jo said...

Yeah for Bear Lake! I wish we could have been there even longer so we could have more food, more fun, and more time with the family. Since you decided to work it has put a damper on summer fun! Not even going to comment on the picture. I guess after the baby, liposuction is a must!

Billie Sue said...

This is the second time I have come to this post, because I am laughing so hard at all of your comments! Seriously, enough of the "dork," "polygamist," "liposuction" comments. You are all beautiful and the best crowd ever to vacation with! The boys are the best -- handsome, clever, cute, smart and talented! Love, love, love the Gunners!

I LOVE bear lake. I wish we could move our family there...I would in a heartbeat-but just for Logan! Anyway I can't believe that little boy is SO big! (PS-I might someday forgive you if you call sometime! J/K...kinda) ;)

I LOVE Bear Lake. So much fun!!! I remember getting the worst sun burn of my life there when I was 8... still have the freckles to show. We had a family reunion up there a few years back. Great times. I wish we could go annually. You look amazing!
