Bear Lake '08

We just got back from a four day vacation at the lake and it was much needed! I'd forgotten how much I miss all the fun that comes with spending time on the water! Here are the highlights of the trip:

The Lake itself! Swimming . . . sitting on the beach in the sun . . . building sandcastles . . .

The boat. Mike's dad is getting really good at driving that thing! And I actually got on the banana for the first time since before I got pregnant with Charlie. I'm proud to say, that I still can stay on that thing really well. It took Bill quite a while to knock me off once I got back into the groove.

Staying up playing cards.

A steak dinner and performance at Pickleville Playhouse

Raspberry shakes from La Beaus

The indoor pool. Yay for not having to slather everyone with sunscreen!

Going golfing (Okay, Mike enjoyed it. I stayed at the condo with the kids)

The semi-private beach that Mike's uncle shared with us.

BBQ hamburgers.

Relaxing at the condo with nowhere to be and no phone reception.

Just being with Mike's family. They are so much fun!

Enjoy the pictures!


Charlie LOVED the water . . .
. . . until he discovered the boat. He thought that was a lot cooler.
A slow ride for the boy . . .
And a fast one for us.Mike and his brother, Scott, had a blast doing tricks . . .
and then Mike drank half the lake.
Another slow ride.

Thanks Bill and RaNae for the fun trip! We are so glad that we got to come!

Looks like fun! I'm sure RaNae is going to be SO excited to see a picture of her in her swimsuit! ;o) Maybe she'll forgive you because she got to play with Peter!
