We sure packed a lot of fun into one short day! We had a mini-reunion in Bear Lake at the end of summer, and we managed to cram in a week's worth of fun memories in 12 hours.
Those of us traveling from Pocatello, including the Phillips family, stopped in Soda Springs at Hooper Springs to taste the mineral water and play at the park. Even the adults had fun playing on the teeter-totters and giant tires.
It looks like Susan and I were the two billy-goats gruff with some trolls ready to get us!
We also stopped at the Soda Springs geyser, but it had just gone off and we couldn't wait another hour.
Next, we headed to Bear Lake to play at the beach. It was pretty busy, but we found a spot for our families and were joined there by Laura and Tyson's family and Katherine.
The kids played in the sand and water while the adults visited and soaked up some sunshine.
Dave and Tyson talked sports while Karen and Susan gave themselves some fancy pedicures.
Del, looking cool in his shades.
Dad and Katherine caught up on some reading.
Mustaches and muscles.
Layla's sandy legs looked like a Maori tattoo.
A group of people walked up the beach blowing gigantic bubbles for the kids to play with.
Layla had fun being buried until she realized she couldn't get out! She needed a little help from her cousins.
Megan and Maren relaxing and looking cute.
The boys had fun, too, digging holes and building cities.
Later in the afternoon we got some burgers at Merlin's and headed to Logan to see the musical, Les Miserables.
The Ellen Eccles theater is a beautiful, old building, and the production was amazing!
After the show Emma got a picture with our friend, Vanessa Ballam Espinosa, who played Fantine. She is the assistant theater professor at ISU, and her voice is beautiful! Her husband, Stefan, is also a teacher in the theater department, and he played Thenardier perfectly! Emma babysits their little boy, Sebastian, and he adores her!
It was such a fun day! Great times with our family.
