We love Bear Lake (obviously-2 weekend in a row!). This weekend we went with the people from Josh's work (some of them anyway) to Bear Lake. The weather was FREEZING, but the kids found a lot of fun still.
The boys were totally looking forward to the wave runners, but when it came down to it, the water was way too cold for Lincoln, they went too fast for Hunter, so Palmer got them all to himself (with Daddy), which he was more than okay with.
The 4-wheelers were a big hit with boys. We don't get to ride them very often so they just couldn't get enough of them.
Josh is such a trusting Dad. Look how relaxed and calm he is as Palmer is driving him around on the 4-wheeler (Lincoln on the other hand looks like he is holding on for dear life).
At night we had a great fire and possibly the best Apple Crisp I have ever eaten complete with heavenly caramel sauce.
I cannot believe how dirty the kids got!
The swing set was a life saver. Since the water was so cold the kids didn't really want to go in it that much. I didn't plan for that, so luckily the kids found lots to entertain themselves.
Josh relaxing. I don't see it very often :)
Palmer's "Wii faces." It was brought to my attention that Palmer's face does a lot when he is playing the Wii. Here are a few of them.
Frog catching was the big event of the weekend. I have never seen so many frogs. It was so much fun! The boys loved chasing the frogs all over, but touching them was another story.
The boys loved playing with the other kids.
The last thing we did was a frog race with all of the frogs. It was possibly the funniest thing I have seen in a long time. The big trick was to get the frogs to hop in the right direction. The kids were all over the place chasing their frogs. Seriously good entertainment.
Palmer won the frog jumping contest. Here he is holding his winning hopper.

Wow you've been busy. Glad you've had such a fun summer. Great pictures!
Looks like a lot of fun Emily. I think Blake wanted in on the frog fun when I showed him the pictures. And WOW, your pictures are beautiful and capture such great moments. You're a great photographer!
Can you adopt our family into your family? You guys have so much fun and you are great about documenting it right after it happens - I have yet to write about our week long trip to New Mexico.
I wish we could have been there longer with you guys! I'm glad you were able to make the most of it - it WAS freezing!!
