Bear Lake 2011!

Another fun year at the cabin at Bear Lake. Thank you Aunt Kami. Every year I take the Middleton Family up to spend a week at the cabin. We usually go the first week in August, but with the baby due so close to that time I didn't want to risk having a baby away from home. So we went in July!

For the most part this is a simple week of relaxing, games, movies, reading, and just enjoying the quiet and beautiful view. We did find a day to go to the beach, which is a must. The water was a lot higher this year so the only place we could find beach was going to the North Shore. It worked out wonderfully!!


Here Addison had fun making sand castles with Grandpa.
Kristian and Mommy...

Jet Ski fun... (Thank you to Sarah and Adam for providing the Jet Ski this year). Jon only rode for about 10 minutes before hitting a large wave and losing a contact lens (um.... oops!)


More cute pictures of the kids...


(cutest little sandy bum cheeks ever!)

Kristian and Addison went with Dad and Grandpa to hike the Minnetonka Cave. They were such troopers!! They didn't get any pictures of them.. so I'll share this... Mommy, enjoying her quiet time, was able to read an entire 370 page book in a day! The Hunger Games! Excellent Book!!!!!

It was a great week and we had such a fun time being together! Thank you Aunt Kami and Bear Lake for another fun year! ...now its time to shift gears and get ready for the new baby and all the changes coming our way!!

Thanks for updating! It looks and sounds like Bear Lake was a lot of fun! The pool and soccer games look fun too! Sounds like summer has been great! So excited for this new baby.
