Bear Lake

We've ultimately decided not to go on any fancy vacations this year, so we're counting on about a million trips up to Bear Lake since it's relatively close and inexpensive since we just stay in the family home up there. For Father's Day weekend, we decided to go and enjoy some much needed relaxation and tanning. Because seriously, we look like ghosts. We all slept in so late (read: 8:45 AM) due to blinds, curtains, shade, and a lack of alarm clocks. It was incredibly glorious and angels sang, probably. While Paige took her morning nap, Jeff & I played Fluxx nonstop, which is an awesome card game that you should buy. After that, we packed up our stuff and headed to the beach! If you ever go to Bear Lake, don't waste your time going to South Beach which is not good at all and go to North Beach. It's less crowded and the sand there is actually sand and not just sand mixed with weeds and trash. Don't worry- we did indulge ourselves in dole whip and raspberry shakes ;) We just ate them too quickly for pictures!

I cannot describe how much Paige loves the beach. Her favorite thing was walking up to it and just pointing and laughing at all the waves and boats as they went by. She just happily sat in the shallow end with us, eating sand and pointing at every person she saw. We love this little girl and being able to watch her experience new things is the greatest thing in the world!
