Bear Lake-- Without Pictures

Summer time is upon us!  After watching my kids (including if not especially Jacob) have a fantastic time at the Dastrup family reunion at Bear Lake this week, this is where I would post pictures if I could only find the camera which was clipped to the beach bag which nobody remembers unloading from the van.  *Sigh*

Until the camera can be found, you are going to have to use a little imagination.  Imagine here a picture of Brigham and Jacob waist-deep in the freezing cold lake playing with Jacob's cousin's remote controlled boat.  I really didn't think that Jacob would want to go into the water because it was so cold, but that little water-boy didn't even hesitate as he plunged in.  He had a heyday chasing down the boat, picking it up and counting to three (by vocalizing three times), and throwing it back it back into the water so he could chase it again.  He and his heroic, stoic father stayed int the lake FOREVER-- long after everyone else decided it was too cold.

Imagine a picture of Benjamin and his cousin Michael with their heads together and their arms around each other-- thick as thieves for the whole 3 days that we were there. 

Imagine  a picture of Ty digging in the sand on the beach with his cousins and dropping his drawers and "wooing" on the ground in front of Brigham's entire extended family during dinner shortly after our arrival since he didn't know where a potty was.  (Okay-- I didn't actually get a picture of that-- I was too busy rushing to intervene to even think about a camera.)

We had a wonderful time and are grateful for such a neat family!
