Our little ocean


Our day trip to Bear Lake was a huge hit with the kids. They had never been before and were quite impressed. The lake has receeded drastically since Jeff and I were kids but it was still a beautiful blue. We ate lunch and played in the water for hours. The kids could walk out as far as they dared and it never got above their waists. The wind was blowing just enough to make it pleasant and it created waves, even though they were pretty tiny. With the sand and sea shells on the beach, we called it our little ocean. Katie built her own sand castle decorated with sea shells, complete with a moat and seaweed flag. She was really sad to leave it behind. Josh's favorite thing was running in and out of the waves, arms and legs flailing in all directions, screaming as loud as possible. Our perfect day at the beach was only complete after a couple of fresh raspberry shakes!

YAY!!! I get the first comment. I'm starting to think Rudy and I need to create a blog to. It's too fun to see the pics and read the stories.

Hey it's your prodigal friend Jeremy!! I got your blog invite and jumped right over to check it out. I have a blog of sorts but I need to keep it up better, in fact I use the same blog system as you do! I really miss you all. I talked to Jen and Eric a few months back and they expressed interest in having a BBQ in my backyard before summer is over. I'd love to get all of us together so we could just hang out and catch up. Let me know if you would be interested and I will get back to you with a date.
