Bear Lake Vacation 2012

Bear Lake was this year's Erickson Reunion. We usually plan out the reunion a year in advance, so we were all excited for this to come.  We knew it would be different for us this year because we would be having a newborn baby.  However Jagger was born early so he was a little bigger than we had figured he would be when we went on vacation.  We have been to Bear Lake before so my kids were super excited for the lake and all the other fun things at Bear Lake.  We had many activities that kept us busy.  We were excited to be around family especially cousins.  Jed and Emily were able to spend a few days also, so my kids were thrilled as were Jake and I.  These are some of the fun things we did in Bear Lake.



We went to John's cousin, Reva's home where we had a pioneer program that was so interesting and fun!  We all got to dressed up like pioneers.  We heard pioneer stories and also got to dance!  It was a fun night!

Jake got to play the bugle for his part in the play.  He did a great job and gave everyone a good laugh! Love this guy!

All the sweet little kids.  They were all excited to be on the stage for the play!

Jeff and Tresa had to play a part of a bride and groom!

Jed and Emily did great on their part too!

We played lots of Tennis. (well Jake and Jace)

Malllory played with the boys too.

Jace really liked to play tennis.  He played for hours with his cousins and his Dad.

Kirk and Trena were nice enough to bring their boat.  We all love the boat and tubing. 

The girls were super excited about riding in the boat!

It put Madelyn right to sleep!

Jace and Isacc riding the tube.

Jed, Emily and Kasen.  We sure miss them!

The girls could play in the sand all day.  They loved it!

Sam was such a great help with Jagger.  I don't think Jagger got put down the whole week we were there!(not kidding)  I held him at night and everyone else held him durning the day!

Jace the tennis player!

Many hours were spent in the swimming pool.

Cute Samantha!

Madelyn has never liked the swimming pool much, because it is always too cold for her.  But finally she liked this kiddie pool, she stayed in here for hours. 

Mckenna loves Jagger. 

Madelyn had so much fun in the swimming pool, but she was so tired!

We took a family bike ride with all the kids.  Jagger actually stayed with grandma!
