Bear Lake

The week of July 26-31, we enjoyed our annual trip to Bear Lake. We took our traditional “Bear Lake Overlook” photo, and started the week off with LaBeau’s raspberry shakes and a meal at Merlin's.Rara & Papa have a timeshare at Ideal Beach Resort. It is a lot of fun, because not only do we get to play at the beach, but there is also a mini golf course on the site, and a huge lawn area for badminton and a climbing wall.Of course, we always spend a lot of time in the pool.The highlight of this trip (especially for Ryan) was Ryan being old enough to drive the Waverunner! After Papa had a very short turn at the helm, Ryan took over. He did great with the instructions that he was given regarding the preferred speed of his passengers…
Slow with Rara…Medium with Mom (obviously just getting started here)…Fast with Papa… The weather this year was perfect, so we enjoyed several days of play on the beach and in the lake. One day we took a break from the beach & water fun and went exploring. We went to Paris! (Paris, Idaho, that is.) We visited the Paris Tabernacle, the Paris museum, an antique shop, and had lunch at the Paris Café. There is also a bird refuge near Paris, so we also drove through that and enjoyed the peace and serenity there.
We ended the week as it began – with enough chocolate covered raspberries to last for a while!
