Bear Lake Reunion: Day 2

Saturday morning we woke up, ate some yummy cereal, bagels, toast, and fruit. The options for the day were to ride on the boat and/or go to the caves nearby. Our group who went on the boat consisted of Rachelle, Brett, Monika, Steve, Nate, Me, Hailey & Addy.

One of my favorite pictures of the weekend...

Me and my girls.

It did NOT take much to get these girls to go for a ride. They were a little worried, but they loved it.

These three were CRAZY.

And then there is us three girls...

Love the look on Rachelle's face.

Back to the crazies.

Out he goes... 

hahah... not really sure what's going on here.

Um, this can't end up good...

This either...

Nope.. it didn't.

Beautiful girls.

Regan was so sweet and nice to Addy all weekend. She just had no problem pushing her time and time again on that swing.

such a cute family

We ended the evening with a little camp fire and s'mores.

Bear Lake Reunion Day 1

Day 1 was a little crazy, but oh so exciting. We woke up that morning, Friday, the 1st of July, packed up our truck and we were on our way. The drive took about 3 hours, not so bad. It was a really pretty drive, however, we were rounding this one bend when a giant semi decided to take the inside of the bend WAY too fast and almost creamed us. That was pretty scary. The drive through the mountains, Hailey and Addy kept talking about how they wanted to find a bear at bear lake. :-)


We arrived 2nd at the cabin, just after Jess and Justin. The cleaning crew was still there, but quickly finished and we were able to venture inside. It was BEAUTIFUL. Jess and I ran around putting names on the doors where everyone was previously assigned.

This was our room, shared with Jess and Justin

Once we got a little settled and had some dinner, which was a BBQ that first night, we took a little stroll down to the lake. It was a beautiful night.

On our little walk back up to the cabin, we saw this random deer just hanging out.

Scary. This picture was Nate's fault.

I could not get Addy off the swings the entire weekend. She wasn't too excited about the fact she had to share them with everyone else.

Everyone getting settled for our 'acquaintance' game.

Rachelle was in charge of preparing this game and it was a blast. She had everyone pick some candy out of a huge bowl, but nobody could eat it yet.  then, after everyone had made their candy choices, she informs everyone that each type of candy means something you have to share with the group.

Smarties:  

Your education or something you enjoy learning about or want to learn about.

Snickers:

Your most embarrassing moment

Pixie Sticks:

Passions and Dreams

Jolly Ranchers:

If you could have any job, what would your dream job be?

Starburst:

Someone you look up to and why

It was such a great game and great way to have share some laughs, some tears and some good times with everyone.

This picture just makes me giggle. This is a plethora of people comparing lengths and shapes of toes.

After the kids were in bed and everyone was just hanging out, Nate and I decided to go check out the hot tub. This was such a cool place to stay.
