Here Comes the Sun

I just returned from one of the most beautiful places on earth. What is that place you ask?

Bear Lake

Ellen and her family brought me with them for this lovely weekend that I've never been more grateful for. It was very much needed. Just to be out on the boat and out on the water and look for miles and just see the sparkly blue water, while the sun beats down on you. It was amazing.

We had so much fun boating, tubing, wakeboarding, skiing, knee boarding, all kinds of things. 

I hadn't been out on a boat in 5 years and it was very much over due. And I loved being at Bear Lake, so close to Utah State, and back where I have so many memories. 

Like this one and we can't forget this one either.

We also went swimming in the freezing cold lake, and laid out in the hot sun.

We got yummy pizza, shakes and I even tried a Hamburger and Steak.

That is a huge deal. 

We loved the Beach and we especially enjoyed each others company.

We had so many laughs, and talked about lots of things. Some fun, some disturbing. 

Just literally everything.

We missed our missionaries but we realized they are where they need to be and we were happy we only have 22 more months.

We watched Disturbia then found ourselves sacrificing Ellen and wondering if we believed in demons when our lights began to flash on and off every few minutes.

It was just Ellen's uncle, flipping the breaker...

Ellen even had her birthday and turned the big 19, finally! 

It was so nice to be able to not only get to know Ellen's family more but also to get to spend the weekend with the girl that had helped me survive summer, whom I have to leave in the next 2 days. I'll miss her but this trip was a fabulous finale to this summer.

Thanks to the Petersen's for bringing me along on this super fun trip! I loved every minute of it!

Enjoy the highlight video from the weekend... Yes I'm still learning to video everything the same way...
