Bear Lake '09


For the (Utah) holiday, we decided to wake up early Friday morning and take a drive up to Logan and meet our friends Holli and Mike. Then we all headed up to Bear Lake to play. Oh my word! SO MUCH FUN! Seriously the best time I think I have had up there.


It was overcast, so not an incredible amount of sun, but the water was really warm and the best part was that it was super windy which was causing 3 foot waves with white caps. So it felt like we were swimming in the ocean. We just played in the water and goofed off. It was a blast.


After we were finished swimming, we went and got Bear Lake's famous raspberry shakes. You haven't had a raspberry shake until you have been to Bear Lake. Amazing.


Then we had dinner and drove to see the fireworks in Logan.


It was a bit of a struggle to get us all in a picture while we were watching fireworks, and the boys weren't exactly cooperating.. especially my husband. So this is what we ended up with. Yes, I know it's a real winner.


We got home by midnight. We packed as much as we could into that holiday. Then rested on Saturday. Followed by a yummy bbq with my parents on Sunday. A lovely weekend. And what makes this week better, is I only work three days! Happy Monday!
