bear lake trip with the swensons.

A few weekends ago, over the Presidents' Day holiday, I got to go up to Bear Lake with Zac and his family. It was freezing and snowy outside, and the pipes that brought drinking water and shower water in were completely frozen. But it was still fun hanging out in Zac's grandpa Max's huge lake house with the whole Swenson family: Lyle, Jill, Eli, JoJo, baby Kynlee, Sadee, Mike, Lincoln, Whitney, JT and Sophie.

On Friday right after school, Zac and I drove up with JT and Whitney. We stopped in Wyoming to get some "things" (fireworks that are illegal in Utah) and headed up to Bear Lake. When we got there, Jill showed me my room (with a creepy picture of an old lady in it--Sophie had to take it down for me so I wouldn't get scared at night). After everyone was settled in, we all just hung out for the night.

On Saturday, half of the group went skiing and snow boarding. Zac and I decided to stay home because we were tired and didn't feel like being cold. Instead, we hung out on the couch all day, taking naps and watching movies. We did, however, go hot tubbing for a little while, and after hot tubbing, we made snow angels--in our swimming suits. It was freezing, but so much fun! Sadly, I didn't get a picture of our snow angels. That afternoon, we went to the chocolate fair, and then to a furniture store. That night, we got pizza that was pretty freaking delicious. I had chicken ranch pizza.

On Sunday, we all went to church in the ward there. On our way home from church, Zac saw my neighbor. Weird. After church, we all went home and ate dinner and played Pictionary on the wii. Some time in between all of this, Zac and I rode the four wheeler down to the lake and took some pictures (none of them turned out). It was freezing, so we only stayed for five minutes before going back to the house. That night, we all splurged and ate all the leftovers.

On Monday morning, we packed up and left. It was a pretty fun vacation, especially since I got to spend it with my future in-laws.
