Russ & Anne Burnett Family: Burnetts at Bear Lake

Our big summer vacation consisted of a trip to Utah to see both sides of our family. First, we went to Bear Lake to spend a week with the Burnetts.

Day 1: Saturday, June 20 - fly from Austin to Salt Lake City, rent cars to drive from SLC to Bear Lake (about 2 hrs away). Meet up with Nana and Papa, and Angela and her 2 little girls.

Day 2: Monday, June 21 (Father's Day) - church in the morning, resting and playing in the afternoon, dinner, and "Glow in the Gospel" family night presented by Nana & Papa

We made Father's Day pancakes for lunch!

This little playground was right out the back door from our room,
The kids spent A LOT of time here.

Day 3: Monday, June 22 - Minnetonka Cave, arrival of Doug & Emily, baby shower

We were so excited to celebrate the upcoming birth of Doug & Emily's 1st baby.

Doug's all ready to be a Daddy.

Day 4: Tuesday, June 23 - beauty spa, swimming, tea party, and princess ball

The only male cousin in the family was unable to attend, so we took advantage of our all-girl crowd to do some pampering -
face masks, pedicures, manicures, and hair styling.

My beautiful girls.

SO nice to have a swimming pool on the property where we stayed.

Tea Time!

Nana's homemade play doh.

For our fancy princess ball we crafted dresses for the girls out of plastic tablecloths and streamers.

Day 5: Wednesday, June 24 - Bear Lake!!!

We rented a paddle boat . . .

and a kayak.

And Russ's feet paid the price for his day out in the sun.

Day 6: Thursday, June 25 - family history games

Doug & Emily were in charge of Thursday's activities. They did an awesome job of coming up with games and activities revolving around family history - long past or more recent.
