Fourth of July- Bear Lake

For the last few years we have been invited to spend time with the Hodges Family in Bear Lake over the Fourth of July. They have a beautiful cabin in Bear Lake West. Randy plays in the 4th of July Golf Tournament with all the men.

I was a dink and forgot the camera so I only have a few pics from Randy's camera phone. (I'll have to steal pictures from the other smart ones who brought their camera)

Randy took Brad to the golf course to hit a few balls. I think it was the highlight of Brad's trip.

We spent time relaxing, visiting the beach, of course eating good food and the kids loved every minute of playing with Sara and Derek's twins.

One of the nights Claire found my toiletry bag after I put her down for the night. When Randy and I came to bed she had put on blush, mascara, and sparkly eyeshadow. She also found some baby powder that she sprinkled all over the carpet then for some strange reason she licked the mirror from top to bottom. She obviously was NOT tired.

Aunt Kamie brought pirate costumes and pirate booty for several treasure hunts on the trip. The kids LOVED searching the treasure map looking for treasure. It was cute listening to their pirate lingo.

We always look forward to this trip and are so grateful for the invite.
