We look forward to our family reunion up at Bear Lake each year. The kids love it because it is 24 hour of cousin play. We just eat, laugh, play and it was such a fun trip. Jason and Grandpa enjoyed going on a 4 wheeler ride.
This was just the beginning of a mud bath tub that the kids worked on for 2 days.
Eliza loving Bear Lake!
Jason and Evelyn became really good little friends on this trip. They loved going swimming and playing on the water trampoline together.

The "S.S Gregory "would make trips out on the lake with different Grand-kids. Anne was out on this trip.
We got a water trampoline this year and we had a blast out on the water with it. The kids made it their little club house and the adults had many competitions out in the deeper water.

This was the finished product of the mud bath. It took the kids 2 days to built and I have to say it was pretty impressive. Jason loved working on this with Grace, Jane, and Emma. All kids worked on it at some point.

Anne, Evelyn, Kate, and Leah.
I have to say that Eliza looks like she is the happiest!
Thanks to Auntie Sarah we made matching t-shirts for all the kids. They had so much fun making their shirts their own.

One of the evenings we did a family talent show. It was a fun night for everyone. The boys got together and did some funny skits.
The girls got together and did a really cute dance.
The men did a funny musical number for all of us. The ladies did a fun skit also. We all participated and had fun cheering each other on.
We were sad to see the trip end but, we have so many good memories to last us until next year. The family on the deck of Grandpa and Grandma Schwitzers. We love this view!
