Bear Lake 2012

 We had our annual trip to Bear Lake back in August. Like always, we had a blast. The Hart family was not able to come out this year so we took the Gibbons and Jacob and Cindy with us.

 The best in when you come out of the canyon and see the turquoise water!

 We went to the beach everyday of course. And the trip is not complete without Brandon and the kids building a giant sand castle!

 Tyler, Caleb and Ethan

 Beauty Queen Cambree
 This is Brandon's grandma Alaire. She is 97 years old and still loves to ride her bike. Her kids told her not to ride and were worried about her riding, so Brandon walked alongside her so that she could get a ride in and take her mail to the post office. We call her Grandma Alaire Bear. Everytime we go see her she sends the kids home with a stuffed bear. For them, it is the highlight of the trip.

 More beach!






 Coleman LOVED the water!













 We have seen a lot of this face above......we call him Mr Grump fish!
 Best buddies! We have really missed these guys since we moved. Caleb has had an especially hard time leaving Tyler. We don't get to see them as often :(



 Jacob and Cindy with cute Izzy!

 Beka and Ethan. Here we are with the Gibbons!

 Hart family



 Splash! Splash! Splash!


 This kid cracks me up. He really wanted to lay in the water, but the sun was in his eyes. So he came up with a solution! :)
 Can't go to Bear Lake without getting Raspberry shakes!! YUM






 Chris and Brandon made Caden his own little "bathtub". It kept Caden from wandering. (the kid has a mind of his own and is not afraid to wonder off). This tub kept him busy for hours. He LOVED it!


 We always have to take a picture with Grandma Alaire

Thanks everyone for making our Bear Lake trip awesome. We went during the Olympics so at night we had so much fun watching the games and visiting. It is always so relaxing when we go up here and we are never really ready to come home. See you next year Bear Lake!!
