Labor Day Weekend: Bear Lake!

I went to another "place-I've-never-been" this Labor Day Weekend. Jared's sister Marie, and her husband Jeff live up in Logan, and we decided that we wanted to go hang out with them for the weekend. We headed up Friday afternoon and stayed with them in their cute little apartment. Saturday morning, we made ourselves some yummy lunches, and headed up to BEAR LAKE! It was our first time there, and it was so fun. What could have made it better? Remembering those yummy lunches we made. Oops! We left the cooler full of sandwiches and water back at home! Luckily we did remember to grab a few snacks so that we wouldn't totally starve while we were there. I did learn one thing while I was there... I take WAY too many pictures.


Here is what we saw as we came up over the hill: GORGEOUS!

The boys wasted no time. They were playing before we even got to the water! Hayden was in heaven with all the sand!

You could see all this WHITE right up near the water, and I was amazed to see that it was a whole bunch of tiny, perfect shells.

Come on in... the water's fine! I was actually surprised at how warm the water was. Even I had no problem getting in!! Good thing Marie and Hayden went in first just to make sure it was alright! ;)

I couldn't believe how far out you could go, and not be all that deep! The kids loved that they could walk WAY OUT into the lake.

I was having a little too much fun taking pictures. I was getting all kinds of fun and crazy angles. Like I said before, I take way too many ;)

Kaitlyn and B found a rock and decided that they needed to "un-bury" it. It was buried pretty deep, but they dug around it until it was free.

I love that my girls still enjoy hanging out with eachother... most of the time.

The boys loved seeing the sailboat, and were so nice to share a towel. We didn't have QUITE enough.

At one point, B came out of the water and just started rolling around in the sand. He got up and said "Hey, look! I'm the SANDMAN!" He was totally covered!

But he had no problem going right back in and rinsing it all off!

Kaitlyn the giant: Holding Jeff, Marie and Eryn! We thought this was pretty funny :D

I love all your pictures! It makes me remember going to Bear Lake when I lived in Logan. I loved getting the Bear Lake Raspberry shakes. I can't wait to see your post on Logan, I'm sure it's changed so much since I lived there.

Bear Lake is so much fun. The water is so pretty, I love it. I was just up there a few weeks ago too. The shakes are a must have. The Raspberry lime one was really good.
