Bear Lake cabin and activities

 We went to Minnetonka Caves one day. That was fun. LOTS of stairs. I was amazed how well all the kids did. 












We stayed in an amazing cabin on the hill at Bear Lake. Each family took turns planning an activity. 
We flew paper airplanes.
 Did balloon games. 




 Watched a movie
Here is the view from the balcony.
 On Father's day the kids sang to their dads and grandpa.
 At the park.


We ate lots of yummy food.
Snapchat fun with Uncle Braden


Bear Lake

We spent a couple days at the lake. That was probably the kids' favorite part. We got sunburnt the first day so we had to wait a couple to get back out in the sun. The first day Matt and Mickie rented a floating trampoline for the kids to play on. Maybe Nate got pictures of that. I wasn't very good at taking pictures there.

There were all of these shallow warm pools for the kids to play in. They were kind of muddy and cloudy, but they didn't mind.







 Nate's Aunt and Uncle, Stormy and Kevin, came too and they rented a pontoon boat and a tube. The kids LOVED that. But the wave runners were probably the favorite part. 

 Tanner and Calin behind the pontoon. Luckily pontoons don't go over about 15 mph, so it was perfect for kids.

 The weather was perfect while we were there. 80's to 90's.
 Uncle Kevin was so fun, and let the kids all drive the boat.

Spence Reunion pictures

We had to take advantage of the opportunity of being all together, and take some family pictures. I had my camera out and so did Michaela. These are some of the shots I got. 
My kids.

Boise-Planet Kid

On our way home from Bear Lake we stopped in Boise to get out some energy. Found this indoor play area that the kids enjoyed. 
We stayed in Ontario, OR that night and played in the hotel pool. It was a nice, and necessary way to break up that long drive home.

Tanner Reunion

We have had a really busy week! We were in Bear Lake last week for the Spence Family reunion, and when we got back, we had the Tanner Family reunion. The Tanner reunion was just a day thing, thank goodness. I am still recovering from the Bear Lake trip. I will blog more about that soon.

Here are a bunch of pictures that I took from the Tanner reunion. It was at my Uncle and Aunt's vineyard in Selma. 
There were lots of kids, so they had a craft table set up, and games. The adults mostly visited and watched the kids. The food was good, and so was the company. I saw a cousin that I hadn't seen in 15 years.

Last Day of School

Last school year flew! Here are the boys on the last day of school. I am excited about this summer. We start it with a family reunion in Utah next week. And we will have stuff going on all summer like, summer reading program, a trip to the coast, trips to the park, junior fitness at the YMCA, baseball, and lots of play dates I am sure.
I couldn't find the picture of their first day of school, so this is their last day of school last year.
