Bear Lake Adventures! Part 2 Downtime.

So no matter how much we loved being on the lake we did have to come off the lake at some point. Besides 4-wheeling and playing games on the beach did I mention we saw some famous people while we were there? See if you recognize them.OK they are only famous in Mitch's mind but the pictures totally reminded me of the paparazzi shots! Don't they look like some stalker was taking pictures of someone famous on some random beach. I love it!


Eventually darkness would force us inside but the fun didn't stop there. The first night we celebrated Tayler and Kimber's birthday. Then we talked and laugheduntil as often happens in my family, someone started wrestling. It quickly became an arm and leg wrestling mess. Mitch and Aaron Aaron and Jacob Josh and Kassidy Andrew and Josh, Aaron and Conner Kassidy, Jacob, Josh, Aaron, and Conner leg wrestling. Mitch taking on 2 at a time. Mitch leg wrestling 4 at a time. As it stands now. Andrew was the leg wrestling champ. Here is the winning move. Maybe short legs are better for leg wrestling.Mitch was the arm wrestling champ although his title is under question because of cheating! He apparently jumps up on his opponents arm and just uses his weight instead of his strength. Take a look at a the photos and you decide.

After the wrestling match we played a game that I used to play at the U called BodyBall. I didn't take pictures but apparently Haley has a hilarious video that she will put up on her blog. The game is this... you all sit on the floor in a tight circle. 1 person stands in the middle and the other press their feet against their ankles. The person in the middle stays stiff as a board and falls toward the group who then pushes them across the circle to another person. When someone lets the person fall they are then in the middle. It was a riot to play. Even Mom had a turn.

The next night after a big day on the lake it was a lot quieter. Here is what the kids did. They watched a movie. The adults talked and played Ticket to Ride! Love that game.
