For those of you who didn't know, my mom got in a serious four-wheeling accident about a week ago. She broke her pelvis and her arm. And one of the first things she asked the doctor was, "Will I be able to go to our family reunion at Bear Lake next week?" She is one seriously tough lady. She was only able to make it up for the last day at Bear Lake because she needed to be near the hospital bed that they are renting. We are so grateful that she is okay, but we know that it will be hard for her to live her life in a wheelchair for the next month or two.
We decided to rent a cabin at Harbor Village near Bear Lake and divide the cost between all of us siblings. It was nice because we all had our own rooms. Rachel's favorite thing about the cabin was the sand volleyball court. She could have played there all day.
Grandpa Monson with his two little granddaughters. Doesn't his face just show how much he loves being a grandpa?
The cabin. We had beautiful weather the first day and spent most of it on the beach. (Sorry, I forgot my camera on beach day.) We rented a boat, jet skis, and the little girls loved using thier sand pails. The next day, we spent most of our time at a nearby indoor pool and just stuck around the cabin so we could visit with my mom.
It was a nice trip. We wished that my parents could have been there for all of it. (Rescheduling wasn't an option, since we would have lost a big deposit.) But we still made some great memories and spent some quality family time together.
