- Callie started babysitting & got a facebook account
- Sierra started learning to play the organ & volunteered at the local library

- Bass Lake vacation
I don't have pictures of everything we did, but here are some cute pictures of girls camp...
They had a surfing lesson
This was a ward girls camp this year and it was still a big group.
Sierra & her friends...Sydney, Krista, Karly, and Brooke
Love the outfit Sierra!
Bass Lake
is one of favorite vacation spots.
We used to go every year for a week when the kids were little, but then we started going to some other lakes. So it had been 5 years since we were last there. It felt like coming home!
We spent our days on the lake...
tubing
wakeboarding
skiing
finding frogs
building sand forts (for the frogs)
playing wiffleball
swimming across the cove and off the piers
jumping into waterfall pools
and our evenings in our cabin...
playing games
doing "stupid human tricks"
chugging water bottle contests
watching movies & the SYTYCD finale
practicing our British accents (Alan just came home from his mission to England 2 weeks ago)
We were so lucky to have my sister, Cheryl, and her family and Courtney, Daniel and their friend Alan all come.
This is us!
(except me behind the camera & Cheryl recouping from surgery in the cabin)

Tubing is definitely the perferred water sport!
No one can knock Seth of this tube, and Stan really tried
Wipeout!!
Courtney & Daniel
Sierra & Callie
Cheryl & Ben
Angel Falls--we love to hike up the waterfall and jump into the pools at the top of it
Callie jumped in this pool of freezing cold water at least 20-30 times
Stan loves his cannonballs!
What is it about swimming that makes you so hungry?
Jumping off the swim platform at our dock
Cousins...Brayden, Cambrie & Sierra
At the end of the day Addie always wanted to pull the empty cooler home.
I love this picture! Seth should frame this and take it to college with him.
So today the girls picked up their textbooks and schedules at the school.And then we headed to the beach.
Only 6 days until school starts!

What a fun sounding week. Someday we are going to have to go to Bass Lake just to see what makes it so special besides family, boating, tubing, swimming, eating,evening fun, etc! Glad all you enjoyed it so much.
aaah so many of those places look familiar to me now - it looks and sounds like we had very similar weeks at Bass Lake - we loved it - thanks for your tips. Cant wait to compare and get more details!
Sounds like fun :) I'm glad you all enjoyed yourselves.
