Bear Lake

Greg and I took the boys to Bear Lake the weekend before the 4th. We had such a great time. We spent a couple of days at the beach, we golfed and just RELAXED!!! The weather was beautiful.

This was Cael's favorite spot. I'll be honest, I was a little bit uneasy with the fact that he played in that mud hole the entire time that we were there. In fact, he almost fell asleep while playing in there.
If you know my husband, you know that he never wastes an opportunity to do something creative. So each day that we were at the beach, he and the boys created a masterpiece. One day we ended up with a giant turtle.

And the next day, a giant Patrick, you know SpongeBob's friend. The boys really enjoy all of the people coming up on the beach to check out their creations.

Grandpa Dave and Grandma Glo also came up to the cabin so that we could spend some quality time together. While there, the boys got my Dad to play video games. I think that this was an all time first. Cord and my Dad were boxing each other on the playstation, and Dad KNOCKED OUT Cord. Not bad for his first time. Cord kept trying to get Dad to have a rematch, but he declined. Cord is not a gracious loser, so you can imagine how that went over.

Colton and Cooper chillin at the pool.

And finally, on the way home, Cooper asked if we could stop at the Logan Cemetery. Earlier in the school year, he had to do a report in school on an ancestor that came across the plains with the pioneers. He did his report on Peter Maughan. He wanted to stop and see where he was buried. I thought that it was great that he was still interested after so much time had passed. We took some pictures and wandered around looking at all of the Maughan's that have been buried there. We also wrote down a bunch of names so that we could research and find out how we were related to them. We had a great time and hope that we can get up there again before Football starts.
