The Lundberg Fam: More Summer Lovin

( I apologize now for the gobs of pictures, but if you know me, I love to take pictures. I kept saying to Jayson, "take some of me with the kids so when we look back years from now we will know I was there too. "Dax said, um who would be taking the pictures, I think we know"

We went up to Logan over the weekend of the 24th and stayed at my parents house.

We went to Bear Lake for the first time this Summer! It was a bad day to go, being the holiday weekend

it was Very Crowded! But we managed to squeeze our family into a spot on the beach. A nice man even let us borrow his shade umbrellla. I guess he was feeling bad for us since we were the only ones on the beach without one.

Aty had a blast playing in the sand

We bought her this turtle last Summer, and she was terrified of it. She refused to get in it. This year she jumped right in. and loved it. We spent a lot of time playing in the water.

Hanging with Mom! Soaking in the Sun!

Tregan got water in his ear, so he was laying down trying to get it to come out. The boys were in swimming lessons for the last two weeks, and he kept getting water in his ears. I finally decided to go and buy him some ear plugs when we got back home, and that helped!

Jumping in the waves!

Sitting in the Waves!
She spent forever in this spot, just playing in the waves and digging up sand and seashells

That night at my parents house, Dax was goofing around and jumping off the couch. Tregan just "happened "to be kicking his leg out at the same time, and gave dax a black eye!

Poor Buddy! He woke up with his eye all swollen

The next morning we wanted to take the boys on a hike up to White Pine Lake. Tregan decided he didn't want to go. So he stayed and helped Grandma take care of Aty. And Jayson, Daxton and I went. He was such a trooper! He kept saying, "I think we have gone three miles now" His little legs got tired, but he kept on walking. We were almost there and he wanted to quit, but we wouldn't let him. We told him he Had to make it to the lake, or he would have hiked all that way for nothing.

He found a walking stick on the way, to help him out.

Being up at Tony's Grove. There was still a ton of snow everywhere. We had to cross over a few spots of snow. And there were a lot of streams because of the melting snow. We got to a spot near the lake that was really muddy, so we had to make our own trail through the fallen tree stumps and snow. This is a log that Jayson and Dax jumped off of into the snow. Dax contemplated about the jump for a while. Jayson jumped and nearly fell on his bum. So then Dax wasn't sure if he wanted to try it. It took some coaxing, but he finally did it. He liked it so much, he had to climb up and do it again.

Here is the beautiful view, when you get to the lake

This was one of my favorite spots on the hike
It was just a long path of old, dead, curving trees.

Oh, and we found a huge snake too! (just kidding)
We took this picture to try and fool Tregan, so he would think he missed out on a big snake. He wasn't very fooled!

On our way back down from the hike. Daxton's poor little legs had just gone too far. So the last 10 minutes or so, Jayson carried him on his back. ( such a big, strong daddy)

It turned out to be a bit longer of a hike then we expected. But it was so pretty up there! And we had fun, just hanging with Daxton. It has been a few years since it was just him, Jayson and I. We used to hang out and play while Tregan was in school. Then of course, Aty came along.

Jayson went home that night, so he could work the next day. The kids and I, stayed over one more night, and went to the parade with my mom. That night, she took us to Brigham where Jayson was meeting us to drive us home. We brought my niece, Shyanne home with us for a few days. We went to the Aquarium one day and to The Gateway, and to Seven Peaks. We had a lot of fun and kept busy. It was nice to finally hang out and do nothing by that Friday. The kids finished up their swimming lessons. And they are even more awesome swimmers then they already were! And now we are trying to fill our days with as much as we can before school starts in a few weeks! Yuck!
