We just got back from a lil trip to Bear Lake for my family reunion on my mom's side. As usual it was hard to be around all my aunts who each remind me of my mom in some way or another, but it was also such a good time. I love them so much, and my cousins too. We had so much fun, boating, wave running, diggin in the sand, getting roasted by the sun, swimming, eating, etc. Can't wait till next year!
FEW WORDS....MANY PICTURES
Just thought it might be fitting to start with the most realistic pic of them all.
My darling kids fighting for a spot to sit.
Please disregard the pot-bellied midget in the middle.
No, I'm not pregnant, though Madelin asks me at least once a week if I am.

Me and my life long friend Christin and her squisherific baby Olivia.
They are living up there right now and her husband manages the place I have gone to for my family reunion my whole life. (Ideal Beach) It was so great to stay with her for a bit and spend time with them and then get to be with my whole family too.
My funny kids in my uncle Tom's Kayak he brought. That's Madelin's cold water face and she's not even in the water. Ha!
Owen would NOT get out.

We all took a spin in the kayak. The kids loved it sooo much.
Notice Owen urgently bolting back to the lake to fill his bucket. His hand is reached out to grab Brett's hand for a little assistance with his quickness.
