Utah Vacation

Almost every summer, we go up to visit relatives in Brigham City, Utah. A few years ago, along with a consortium of competitive water skiers, they built a lake on their farm property, and each time we visit we marvel at the improvements they've made. It's beautiful there, and so peaceful. We love it.

I took this picture from the dock, dangling my legs in the cool water--heaven!

They have a canoe, some floats, kayaks, and a slide. There's a barbecue, bathrooms, a covered patio area, and all kinds of fun to be had!

My niece Carla, with her daughters Sunni and Lana.

Emily's oldest son Dylan, getting ready to play a game of cards with Jessica, planning to cream her he said -- Scum, of course. That's one of the other traditions of Utah summer trips, many, many, many games of Scum!

Ann Marie, her son Trent and his wife Toni. Aren't they cute? Yes, Ann Marie, even you! (She always wants to be excluded from the picture, and demands editing rights.)
Just some of "the boys" having fun in the sand.
Carla and Ann Marie--I was so glad Ann Marie was able to come with her family that day. We don't see them enough.
Ann Marie's daughter Mattie wanted pictures of her jumping in the water.
Ann Marie's youngest--Gracie.
Utah mosquitos never miss feasting on Jessica--she had at least 10 bites on this foot (you just can't see them all). It's a week later now, and they're still itching!
Is it gorgeous there, or what?!
