My grandparent's built our cabin before I was born. Bear Lake has been a summer tradition my whole life. Just driving up there brings a happy feeling to me. I love everything about it. I have so many happy childhood memories driving in my grandma's green station wagon sitting backwards in Logan canyon. (No wonder just looking at a car makes me car sick!) Every weekend we would stop in Logan and get curds then up to USU campus to get my mom Aggie icecream. I am so blessed that I get to share these fun memories with my kids. Sometimes when my kids are out making sand castles or collecting sea shells I imagine my mom and grandma standing on the same red deck, that has been there for 35 years, and smiling while watching them.
I love Aniston's chubby little legs!
This is my cute sister in law Claire.
Two little peas in a pod ruining the big kids sand castle.
See what I mean about the piggy smile. 
Here is our new tradition.......sitting around the camp fire roastin marshmellows and just visiting.
Again the piggy smile!
She said she wanted to go tubbing with Squeezy. I don't think she understood what that meant. She got in and started screaming. Maybe next year!

Thanks for posting these pics. Everyone is getting so big! I wish I could see Becky's tummy, but Im sure she's still tiny since she's eternally that way anyway! Its funny because my parents are just starting the process of building a cabin for family get-togethers. I hope my kids have the same nostalgia you remember having as a child.
I am so sad I've only been once this year. Can you adopt me into your family? You guys are way more fun. :)
Nan! It is so good to hear from you! I love blogging. It's the best! I am so sad that I didn't see you in Wal-mart. Hopefully we'll run into each other soon. I hope all is well with your adorable family. Keep in touch! =)
Ok, I can't stop laughing at the piggy smile!! How cute is that? So fun for your family to have such great memories of Bear Lake! (btw I love your red and white swimsuit) Stockton is growing up way too fast- Cammon idolizes him:) He has been asking me nonstop since Stock's bday if he can have his bday party there too!?!
Nan, what fun memories. MAN, you sure have a lot of family traditions. You are a well traveled woman. I love it!
Love the smile, Sadie does one, she looks a little Asian when she smiles, her eyes disapeer.
Such fun memories you are creating with your family!
It looks like so much fun. One of the many Utah vacation places I have yet to visit. Jay needs to get on the ball and take his family there. So funny how kids want to do what their siblings are doing until they actually get their 'feet wet'. What fun memories.
