bear lake.

every summer my dad's side of the family has a reunion at bear lake. we camp at the south eden campground and boat, swim, and just have a crazy fun week with so many family members in one spot. my grandpa and his cousins started this reunion and it has gone on every year since my dad was a baby. i have second and third cousins there and let's be honest, i don't even know how i'm related to half our family members there. bear lake is my favorite place on earth and i always have the most amazing time there. this year was the best yet though because dawson was there with us! and we brought jude, of course.

it was storming the first few days we were there, which provided us plenty of opportunity to sit in my dad's motor home and play games. one day we went to lava hot springs, which was so much fun. my brothers both brought a friend and they were both awesome.

"how's married life?"

some people seem legitimately surprised when i smile and answer, "it's so good!" it's like they expect me to say "it is sooooo rough my husband is sooo annoying!" or something like that. it seems like being newly married is notorious for being hard because it is such a big adjustment. but the truth is, adjustment and all, i am still convinced that my husband is super man and nothing in the world could make me happier than being married to him.
