Raspberry Day's 2008

Unfortunately every year at Raspberry Days something makes the news. Usually not good news. This year our family was outside the cabin when we heard this plane flying and then like the engine had just stopped and then a sudden bang like it had hit a brick wall. A few of our family members took off on 4 wheelers and by foot to see what had happened. They returned shortly with horrible news that the plane had crashed on the beach and that 2 adults were killed in the wreck. Luckily it was earlier in the morning where there were not many on the beach. On a lighter note. Like always, we enjoyed all the festivities that go on at Bear Lake. The parade is always a hit. We leave with so much candy, shirts, necklaces, bracelets, toys, Frisbees and much more. We had to tell Preslie to get a little more aggressive while trying to keep Mayci from getting ran over by the floats.




Brandt sporting his $6 tattoo from booth #9. We were trying to find something to mimic my older brothers tatts. We love you Craig!




This picture is for all of my girlfriends! The memories we all had in this sweet paddle boat.





The Koob tournaments were hot this past weekend. Craig on the ground trying to rule out Brandts victory.









The girls could not get enough of the 4 wheelers. Thank you dad for spending most of your time taxiing them all around. Good Times at Bear Lake.

Awwwe, the girls are already making their own memories during the infamous Raspberry Days. Before you know it, they'll be spending hours getting ready to impress the boys at the dance!!

OHHH the memories! As always, looks like a blast! One of these years I'm going to take you up on your invite to come up there! I saw that plane crash on the news and wondered if it was close to you guys. So sad! How have you been feeling? It's good that you stay busy to take your mind off the last trimester! (Not that you can ever truly take your mind off of it - Seriously! I was just trying to think positive.)

You know, I was already sad that I couldn't make it this year, and then both my mom and Clint tell me how much fun I missed and that my girls would have had a blast. Like I don't know already. Hopefully next year we can make it (that's if we're invited!) I told Shaun that we are going to plan his vacation around it this time instead of planning it around the hunts. Seriously, what's more important? Hope to see you guys this weekend at the big family reunion!

You didn't mention anything about the dance. Do they not have it anymore? You and Brandt could have danced like that couple at Tim MacGraw. (Only you wouldn't look like two pigs in heat.)

I just think of us in our new UDA sweatshirts up getting ready for the big dance! Didn't we get stranded out on that paddle boat?
