Bear Lake

Over the weekend we went up to Bear Lake. Eric's cousin has a cabin there and they let us use it. Almost my entire family was able to come. We had a lot of fun, even if the weather didn't fully cooperate with us.

On Saturday we went down to the lake and had it to ourselves. Well, there was a good reason for that. The sun was sort of shining, but spending a lot of time behind clouds, and the wind was blowing. It made it rather chilly. The kids played on the beach a little and had fun playing in the sand with Uncle Brad while building temples (not castles, but temples according to them).
They all took turns going out in a canoe my brother brought up. They all had fun out on the water, and were very well behaved.

While some of us were near shivering, the only one seemingly unaffected by the coldness of the day and the water was Hannah. She wanted to get in the water (and did) and then didn't want to get back out again. I guess the youngest in our group was also the strongest. =)

Back at the cabin we watched movies and played games. My family are all big time gamers, so we loved having the time to play. (Sorry for the poor quality picture, but you get the idea.)
Even though the weather didn't allow for a fire outside, Eric was determined to have smores anyways. I didn't mind because they were yummy! After some delicious omelets courtesy of my cute hubby, we all headed for home on Sunday morning. Thanks to Sam and Jamie for providing their cabin so we could have such a fun weekend!
