A Day at the Lake


We took a little trip to Bear Lake back in August. It was so much fun! Patrick had never been there so when we drove up over the hill his first reaction was "Holy cow! It's huge!! And it's so blue!" If any of you have ever been to Bear Lake, you'll know its not called the "Carribean of the Rockies" for nothing. It was beautiful that day. It was one of the last Saturday's before school started so there were about a million people there. Fortunately, we got a spot of beach and had a fantastic day :)

Patrick's hand-printed mud cow-pie and the hole he dug to make it. He was so proud!













A tiny shell! How cute!








This is a little frog we caught on the beach. I've never seen a frog at Bear Lake before so it was kind of weird...
Can we say the word "froggy" enough? honestly.


We picked a great day to be there so of course there were about a billion people spread all along the entire north beach. We came later in the afternoon too, so it was already crowded. Luckilly we found a perfect little spot set up for some fun in the sun.






It was a beautiful day to be at the lake!

This is Patrick doing a manly pose under the unbrella. This is actually the same umbrella we used for the refreshment table at our wedding. And now it sits in our picknick table on our front porch. It definitely has many uses (thanks grandma!).
