4th of July in Bear Lake

We spent this last weekend with Tyler's family in Bear Lake. His parents rented this cabin, and we had so much fun! In my eyes, staying in a luxurious cabin is way better than camping!! (even though camping is pretty fun too).
The kids enjoyed the hot tub, and could have stayed in there all day if we would have let them.
The water at Bear Lake is so high, so most of the beaches were closed. We had to go clear to the North shore which was a about 20 minutes away. No matter where we are, the kids LOVE playing on the beach!! We had a great camp set up, and had a good time.
They love their cousins!


Meili's first ride on Grandpa's boat. She hated her little life jacket, but fell right to sleep when the boat started. I think she liked it!

We went to church on Sunday in Garden city. It was more packed that Stake Conference. We ended up sitting on the floor in a hallway. We decided to leave after Sacrament mtg. and drove to Logan to see the temple. It was fun hanging out on the grass in the shade, and hearing about the temple.
On the way there, Jacob got car sick. Thank goodness for the barf bags that Tyler stole from the hospital when I had Meili. Coming back, Riley was sick. I took this picture when we had to pull over to let him throw up. I just thought they were getting out to get some air, and I loved the backdrop, so I stapped a pic. Good thing I didn't get the throw up.
Later, the kids had a movie night downstairs.
We were planning on staying later on Monday (the 4th), but it was kind of crummy weather, so after the kids swam in the pool for a while, we headed back home. We stopped in at my parents, and my brothers were over having a little get together. We made it in time for roasted marshmallows. YUM!


All of our neighbors were lighting their own big fireworks, so we didn't end up going to see fireworks anywhere else. Needless to say... We had a GREAT weekend, and a Great 4th of july!!
