Bear Lake '11-Week 1

Our first week at Bear Lake was last week. It was a little different just because we haven't ever been up there that early in the summer so the weather wasn't something we have had in the past. There is still snow up on the tops of the mountain, the weather didn't ever get up above 70 most of the days and the water temperature was a good 49 degrees. But none the less we had a great time. We were able to go out on the boat all of the days but 1. The end of the week was quite exciting though. On Friday morning after I had woke up I started having a pain in my right side. Front and back. I at first thought that I was just having some indigestion so I told Kyle that I was going to go lay down again. 5 minutes later I was in so much pain I couldn't hold still so after I called Kyle in and than he called his sisters in, we decided that maybe it was the best for me to go to the hospital. Kyle's Dad came in and they gave me a blessing and put me in the car and started through Logan Canyon. It was the longest ride of my life but Craig made great time and they got me to the hospital in half an hour. After a CT scan they discovered that I have kidney stones. I was passing one, that's why I was in so much pain, but I have 3 more in my right kidney and 1 or 2 more in my left kidney. So now I have to go and meet with an urologist. Super fun! Luckily when I got back to the cabin the stones passed later that day so I could enjoy the rest of my trip. We sure do love our weeks up at Bear Lake and love spending time with the family!

The kids spent A LOT of time outside on the tramp.

The water is up high enough now that they could put out our ramp. The kids loved walking out on it.






Sleeping on the boat. The best kind of naps!

Corbin tried skimming for the first time and LOVED it! He did it 3 or 4 times. It's just getting him more and more comfortable behind the boat.
