We Love Bear Lake!

Our awesome friends (more like family), Kevin and Laura invited us to their amazing cabin at Bear Lake. The lake is on the Utah-Idaho border and the cabin is on the Idaho side. This is the view from the wrap-around porch of their cabin. Our family loves Bear Lake--it is so beautiful! There is no lake like it anywhere. The water is so clear and blue that it looks like a swimming pool.
Kevin has an awesome boat and the kids love to ride on it!

So do I!

It goes very fast (check out that hair!)

The beach is full of tiny shells which the kids love to examine and save.

It also has great sand for sinking your toes and feeling it seep around your feet.

The water's also great for swimming and wading.

Caitlin even found a walking stick on the shore.

Don't you love Jovian's oreo glasses? We had a delicious lunch at the beach, thanks to Kevin and Laura.

Cute girls! Rachel enjoyed spending time with Jovian, her adopted cousin.

She also loved riding in the boat although the water was too choppy for them to waterski, a great disappointment to her. There's always next year, right?

Favorite pals--Jovian and Rachel

Check out Rachel's shoulder muscles--must be from swim team.

Jovian and Rachel also enjoyed lounging in the water on the spider.

Courtney and Caitlin loved dancing in the waves on the shore. They are full of joy!

They also lounged happily on the boat.

Cute Caitlin loves the blue water and the blue, blue sky.

Spencer holds the flag and keeps Miles' sunglasses safe while he's on the knee board.

Courtney's one happy girl!

I love this shot of Caitlin.

Her hair is so beautiful, curly and blonde!

After Miles and Shayla demonstrated how easy it was to knee board, Spencer agreed to try. On his first attempt, he could never get up on his knees.

So Miles, the hero, got into the water and helped Spencer get on his knees.

And it worked! Look at Miles's smiling face. Spencer's not so sure he likes it yet
but he's doing it!

By George, I think he's got it!!!

Swimming back to the boat after a great ride!

He's one proud boy! Good job, Spencer!

Courtney enjoys sitting at the front of the boat

So do Caitlin and Shayla. What a beautiful day! We loved our trip to Bear Lake!

What great photos. We just went to Bear Lake for the first time and the blue water really is stunning.
