Summer at the Lakes

We had so much fun this summer and it is still continuing! I think we have been somewhere just about every month and the time has flown by. We have been so spoiled traveling around this summer! These last couple lake vacations we were in Bear Lake, UT and Big Bear, CA.


On Labor Day weekend my side of the family did a spontaneous vacation to Big Bear. It ended up just us, my parents, and the Gueck family going but it was such a great weekend. This was my first time there and it was fun to escape to mountains in the middle of crazy southern CA. We rented a cabin right on the lake with a dock and a great view! It was definitely a BUSY BUSY time to go there because of the holiday the lake was so packed! A lil downer because there was no way to wakeboard or ski safely but the lake was really cold to. My dad bought new sea-doos right before we came, so we had a blast on those, hitting the waves and just cruising. We brought the jet boat with us and had so much fun on that also, so we made up for not having the other stuff to do. Ended up being a great time and so glad to spend that time with my family. LOVE THEM!














Our other lake trip we went to was Bear Lake in Utah. This was also a first time for me there and this was another great trip! We went with Dave's family and met up with some of his extended family that had a lake house. So beautiful and so fun to meet that part of the family. We were on the water all day every day and soaked up some serious sun there. Luckily no one got burned... to bad but just about everyone got in to the water to test out their skills. Both Dave and I tried wake surfing for the first time. Of course Dave did better than I did but it was worth a try and sometime I would like to do in the future again! When we were not on the boat we played bean bags, sun bathed, watched movies,played games and ate, and ate, and ate! Dave's Aunt Cathy is such a good cook and fed us so much. I was told that you can NOT leave Bear Lake without trying their famous raspberry shakes. Oh boy, they were so good, it ended up being breakfast for us on the way out but we couldn't miss out! :)

A Big THANK YOU to Cathy, J.R and family for inviting us out there with them for such a great weekend!












Oh and something amazing happened! Both lake trips I some how did not get ONE mosquito bite! I am one happy person :).....maybe I'm not as sweet anymore. Haha really though so thrilled! I usually get eaten alive.
