Bear Lake, 2007

Jeff's family has been going up to Bear Lake for years. They started a LONG time ago when Jeff was just little and they try to make it up every year. Jeff and I have been able to go three of the six years we've been married, 2002, 2005 and now this year. The first year, we had no children and the second year, Brax was still not too curious about much, but this year it was SO fun, just because we could see Braxton having so much fun. So, we were up this year from Monday, July 23rd thru Friday, July 27th 2007.

Here is a picture with the cousins:

Braxton, Austin, Cambria, Jakob, Jaden, McKinly and Isabella

(There are two missing, Ashley who hadn't arrived yet and baby Stockton who must have been with Kim at the Condo .... she was sick the first two days!)

We arrived at IDEAL BEACH RESORT on Monday night and so we didn't really get any playing in that day. But Tuesday we headed for the beach and Braxton had so much fun.

He played splashed in the water, tried to bury his feet in the sand, threw the sand (I think that was his favorite part) and just had fun hanging out with his cousins.

It was an overcast day and Jeff and I ended up with some nice sunburns! I didn't think we had stayed outside that long, but I guess we had. So funny that we take the time to make sure Braxton is protected - but for some reason think we won't get burned. I guess we were wrong! (not the first time that has happened)
