Summer fun post #1-Bear Lake

So we are back after 6-7 months with another post. I will not make any promises that I am back on the band wagon but I hope to post a few more things about this summer. Summer 2011 has been sooo much fun! We had all kind of trips- Newport beach with Ted's family, Bear Lake with my family, and a surprise 5th Anniversary trip to San Diego (I hope to post details later, but Ted did an amazing job surprising me). I dropped my camera in the sand so most of our summer pictures are on Ted's phone. The only pictures I have downloaded are from Bear Lake- here are a few.

Most of the cousins lining up for the pinata!


Ted striking a pose! (He is always trying to make me laugh)


Fun on "uncle Nate's boat" as Drew calls it. Thanks for the toys Nate and Des!!!


Crashing on the beach.
Luckily my mom took Drew back to the beach house for a nap because we later got caught in a nasty sand storm.


Drew loving the water slide that Nate and Des brought (seriously thanks for the toys!)


Enjoying Pickleville playhouse. Drew liked it okay with all the treats we fed him. The rest of the family LOVED it and laughed ourselves to tears.

Drew playing on the grass.

Drew has grown a ton since I last wrote. He is talking up a storm (he didn't talk much until he turned 2 but now he won't stop!). He LOVES doing puzzles, going swimming, playing outside and his imagination is starting to really blossom. He loves playing with his friends and cousins and the rarely hurts them when he plays!!! This last month of fun has thrown him for a loop and I hear a lot of screaming lately. It is funny when I realize what I am saying to him because he often repeats them back to me later. For example a couple weeks ago he said "You bothers me mom!!"- too funny. We love being his parents and truly think the world of him!!!
