Bear Lake ~ July 5th-10th

For over 35 years my family has been going to Bear Lake for our family reunion, and consistently, a few of my mom's brothers (with families) come every year as well. It was a magical place for me as a child and now it's a wonderful and very exhausting place as a mother. I LOVE IT!

 Sure there's a whole condo to sit, but let's face, wherever mom is, we are!

 

Brother Swen            Brother Sam

 My sister Alexis!         My sister-to-be Hillary!

Swen was such a help with me being w/o Ted, thanks!

Of course there is Volley-ball!!!  I never get to play as much as I want or used to as a youth, but a couple hours was good enough.

 On the Go

 At the beach

These kids run-run-run most the time, there are moments when a movie is just what the doctor ordered.

Our Favorite Things Party

SO FUN!

Last year was the first ever Bear Lake TRI, in which my cousin Danny instituted and I believe will be apart of our reunion from now on.  The competition between family is always exhilarating.  It was a blast!  Great Job setting up this year Trevor, it was a great route!
