On Saturday we didn't have anything to do so we decided to head north! After a VERY long 3 hour drive to Logan (it is only supposed to take just more than 1 hour)...We finally made it!!! (and there was much rejoicing from ME - since I was about to pass out from heat stroke!) We picked up Dave and Derek and headed further north to Bear Lake.
What good is a bear lake trip if you don't get a raspberry shake...it isn't any good at ALL! So we did that first!
Then we headed for the beach!
We think the swimming lessons must be paying off because PG just walked right out into the water, it was cold but he didn't care. He just had KJ's hand and kept walking, then after a little while he let go and wanted to walk on his own.
KJ kept picking up the wet sand and PG would take it and throw it back. It was a fabulous game...after a little bit of help he was able to bend down and get some for himself.
Here are the 4 boys playing in the water. Aren't they cute!! :o)
Derek prefered to stay on the shore, and PG followed for a little while, after all other people had shovels and buckets and balls to play with...sheesh! This is him after he stole someone sand stuff (they did say it was ok). He enjoyed the digging and the throwing.
Then he enjoyed getting all the sand washed off!
This is the little girl that he "borrowed" the sand toys from. I just couldn't resist taking his picture. She was so cute standing there looking so tired and worn out, eating her donut with powder all over her lips. She just stood there like that for like 5 minutes. The only part of her that moved was her arm putting the donut to her mouth. :o)
After he got sick of the sand PG and Daddy took a little walk. Can you guess what PG wanted to see? Bear lake is cool that it has a really LONG shallow area. It varies in depth from 0-25 inches or so (depending on where the sand deposits when the waves come in) then once you get out really far then it drops off. So, they just kept walking and it would get up to PG's chest and he would just keep going, he didn't care, he would just put his arms up, for some reason he didn't want to put his arms in above the elbow. it was cute to see him walking around chasing boats with his elbows above his ears. He is a funny one for sure!
Here is Derek Getting washed up and ready to go. He didn't really care for the cold water or the washing up part...or the leaving part for that matter! He just wanted to play in the sand. But alas it was time to go...because we had tickets to Pickleville Playhouse !!! It was so much fun!!! We had dinner and then watched the melodrama "Chuck Wagon" it was REALLY good. (Mindy had some church responsiblities to take care of during the day but was able to meet us in time for the play.)
It made for a really late night but it was worth it. It is fun to do cool things especially with family!
