Bear Lake Fun

We were able to take two trips up to bear lake this year. The first was a fun 2-dayer with some friends from our ward. They had access to a cabin, and it was so fun to spend some time getting to know friends better. There were kids both Ellie's age, and Addie's age, so it was fun for them to play, play and play!
Ellie & Kate at the castle where all the princesses live!

Ellie had SO much fun playing in the water & sand.
Addilyn NEVER falls asleep anywhere but her bed, so this surprised us all. She must have been completely wiped out!
Ellie was so excited because she got to see a real bat hanging upside down! I thought she might be nervous about it, but she thought it was the greatest thing ever!


Addilyn & Ben doing what they do best.....sitting! Adds LOVED to just sit on this in the water. She wasn't a fan of the sand, or the cold water (she's too spoiled from the warm 7-peaks water:)) We spent Monday at the beach, and Tuesday we went to the Minnetonka Caves. Thanks Kevin and Janelle for inviting us up!

Looks like a lot of fun! I love Addilyn's bathing suit, the ruffles are adorable! I want to take my family there sometime!

What great pictures, it looks like you had a wonderful time with your family and friends. It is so good to see these pictures and feel a part of your life. We are doing well The summer heat is abating and the last few days have been comfortable. We have had quite a bit of rain in August, not heavy just every day. The mission is going well. We love you all and miss you. We look forward to hearing about you trip to Hawaii. Bet that was fun. Love Mom & Dad
