2016 States Trip {Bear Lake}

Ken's mom was insistent that while we were in Utah, that she have some time with just HER family and NO ONE else.  Ken's parents rented a cabin up at Bear Lake and we played for four days.  It was so much fun!  Our kids could reconnect with their cousins that they haven't seen in almost three years.  And the adults could bond as friends.  The first day we played and dug in the sand.  The second day we rented jet skis and stand-up paddle boards.  I fell in love with paddle boarding.  We enjoyed delicious, famous raspberry shakes.  We ate outside.  We enjoyed meals together.  We mused at the large number of children we have.  It was wonderful!  When we left, the kids (and adults) were all exhausted, but it was so worth it!

Do you see me and my mother-in-law on the paddle boards?! She's pretty awesome!
