Bear Lake

We love Bear Lake. Dave especially loves Bear Lake. His family has been going to Bear Lake for a week each summer for what seems like forever. We've gone every year since knowing each other, but every year we've only been able to stay for a day because of Dave's crazy work schedule. Well, this year he decided he was going to save up lots of vacation time so that we could go for the whole trip. We got to be there Monday-Thursday, and it was SOO much fun. I think the most fun part was watching Dave be so excited about being on vacation and not having to go to work. He was like a little boy in a toy shop, he was so excited! We spent lots of time at the beach, and Dave got to do lots of wake boarding/waterskiing. I'm still a little too timid to try out anything but tubing. Maybe one of these years I'll get up the courage to try. :)

 See? Look at that face! That's pretty much what his face looked like the entire trip.

Here are a few highlights of the trip:

• Reading at the beach
• Taking naps at the beach
• Not getting sunburned (Dave got completely fried!)
• Playing ultimate frisbee
• Playing volleyball
• Always having tons of DELICIOUS food for every meal 
• Tubing
• Tubing
• Oh, did I say tubing? It was AWESOME!
• Watching the water-skiers and wake boarders
• Sharing 2 bathrooms with 21 people
• Playing Ticket To Ride
• Jet-Skiing
• Eating at La Beau's - best raspberry shakes EVER
• Watching Cool Runnings
• Spending so much time with family we don't get to see too often

We had a GREAT trip to Bear Lake, and I feel so lucky that we were able to stay for the whole time. I think Dave is already counting down the days until next year's Bear Lake trip. I just love how you can travel not too far in Utah and there are so many beautiful and fun places to go to like Bear Lake. Can I get a Hip Hip Hooray for Utah?
