The last weekend in July we went to Bear Lake with the Smiths and Selks. Jen and Chris had a cabin for us to stay at, the Selks brought their boat, and Mike and I brought Izzy. We had such a great time! Friday night we went out to dinner at a burger and shake place. Then we spent the rest of the night playing games. Saturday we spent the day at the lake. Izzy was a trooper. She loves being in the water and on the boat. Saturday night the boys went to help the Selks' friend get his plane off the beach. He had landed on the beach during the day, but the sand was too soft so he couldn't take off (the boys have quite the story). Us girls hung out at the cabin, doing what girls do best--talking and eating chocolate. Sunday we spent the day on the lake again.

Penny, Izzy, Kirsten, and Jennie

Jennie surfing like a pro.

The boys kept having all these "brilliant ideas." One of them was to both surf at the same time.
This idea actually worked.

Another idea was to get pulled on this air mattress. Jen called it a poco pad, not sure what it really is. This idea worked okay. They tried riding double on it; that did not work!!

Mike is getting pretty good at surfing.

Their last idea of the day was to jump off the boat at 40 mph. They started their jumps at 25 mph and gradually worked up to 40.

1, 2, 3 JUMP!

They got a little banged up after their first jump at 40 mph. But you know boys, they decided to do it again.

Well everyone except Mike!

We had such a fun time; can't wait for our next trip with the Selks and Smiths!
