We went camping at Beak Lake with my side of the family. I had not been to Bear Lake in years. It's really high this year.
As the lake came into view as we drove Mitchell kept yelling "a bath!" as he pointed out the window. Pretty much any water is "a bath". He loves to get wet.
Our first evening was quite cool, but Mitchell was still in "a bath" as soon as possible, fully clothed.
The desire to be wet must run in the family since I think all the kids did take a little dip that night.
Mason chillin in Bill's big chair.The next day we went to the Minnetonka Cave. We had to wait a while for our tour so we had a picnic in the parking lot. Mitchell kept taking everyone's food & drinks to finish himself.
Finally getting to go in & cool off.
We all enjoyed our cave tour. Mitchell kept pointing to the rocks & declaring "a rock". I don't know how many times we heard "a rock" on our tour but it was lots.
There are 444 stairs in the cave.
On the beach Emma kept hunting for little shells.
The big girls made a sand couch.
Mitchell wanted to get into the water in his clothes so we finally put him in his suit & life jacket & turned him loose, even though it was a bit chilly.
We celebrated Mitchell's second birthday a few days early. He got lots of fun toys to play with at the lake.
Mitchell ate a huge marshmallow. He was SO STICKY, so was everything around him.
The lake was so high that the boys were playing in the weeds in water up to their waists.
Mitchell was loving every minute on the beach by "a bath".
Our friends have a boat that they took us out on. Mitchell wanted to drive it.
I was the first one on the tube.
Mitchell liked the boat ride. It rocked him to sleep.
Sarah & Becca stayed on the tube for a long time.
After a few fun hours on the boat it broke down. Todd & Mason towed it in on a jet ski.
Bill decided he'd pull the boat in just for fun.
Mitchell spent a bit of time in his pak-n-play in the trailer, until he learned to climb out of it! He's wearing his Happy Camper shirt from Becky.

Looks like some good, messy fun! Is Sarah's hair chopped?! It reminds me of when she was 3! So cute!
Was a fun few days.
