This year in May marked my parent's 50th wedding anniversary. So we tried to come up with a gift that they would really love. We thought what would they love to just have all the family together. So we got to work and decided that Bear Lake would be the best location for all of us and they would love the atmosphere there. So we rented a house and got everything ready.
We drove up on June 30 and this was part of our sceanery along the way, beautiful!!!
We got there and just kind of hung outand got dinner ready.
Everyone helped with the meal.
We missed Courtney's birthday so we had to do a procession and celebrate!
Oh this silly family.
The kids had a few movie premiers to show so we all gathered in the basement for the show.
The movies we watched were:
The next morning we all participated in:
The winner was, of course, Casey but really he had no competition.
That day we went and just played at the beach.
My mom agreed to go on a ride on the jet ski. She's so cool!

That night we went to get famous Bear Lake raspberry shakes.

That night we went and took some family pictures. Ufortunately Jonas' camera was stolen and the pictures were gone so this is all we have from the video Kailee was filming.
Retake from last time we were all together which was when these three got baptized.
Dinner time!
Talent show time. Just has to be done every time we get together pretty much.
Some pictures of the cabin before we left on Friday.
We then drove up to have a tour of the Minnetonka Cave.
Lunch at Firehouse Pizza before heading home.
Betos for some Mexican food.
Fourth of July hot air balloons in Provo. It was a little windy so we never got to see the balloons launch. Oh well it was a fun time together!
Attempting to watch the parade for a few minutes
A horse man dancing???
Cee Ryle loves the parade. It is tradition that we always go to the parade. For years we have had one or more of our children in it but this year we didn't and since no one else really wanted to go we decided to stay home. Well CR would have none of that. He decided to ride his bike, attach a flag and go to the parade. He's so patriotic!!!
In the afternoon we went and saw Inside Out with all the kids.
Fireworks!!!
