Bear Lake Trip!

Last week, our family had a fabulous time at Bear Lake spending time with Grandma and Grandpa Colton, aunts and uncles, and cousins!

As most families do, everyone had different interests. Here are some of the things we did:




Daniel tried to get a tan--however, I only brought 50 spf sunscreen--sorry, Daniel!








Paul, Kelly, Daniel and Maddie went on a hike--we learned that this tree is "tortured."






We even found snow on our hike--in July!



Ellie relaxed on the lake...



And the beach


A rare picture of Emily out of the water watching Daddy architecturally design a sand city.

Holly played in the sand and water while Paul continued to build his city.




We took Cameron and Aaron with us (Paul, Kelly, Daniel, Emily & Maddie) to Minnetonka Cave. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for sending us there!


It was quite a week! We came home exhausted, but happy after a fun vacation. Everyone was very happy to get back to their own bed!

Hooray for blogs!!!! I think you are very computer savvy to get this far on your first day. Great pix - that tortured tree is cool. So glad you all had a good time. We love going up to the lake, but the best part is sharing it with other people.
