Bear Lake w/ my awesome inlaws

and why are they so awesome, you ask? see below:

a couple weeks ago, brett and i returned from visiting his family in utah. for most of the time, we stayed at this cabin in bear lake. brett's fam is awesome because they know how to have a good time together, for example:

1. They aren't afraid to go to maverick at a late hour, just for a $1 frozen yogurt.

( incidentally this trip ended with my yogurt in some strange girl's hair, a stubbed toe, and no yogurt for anyone, but that is for another day; another blog. oh, and yes, that's my lil bro ben on the far left)

2. they follow my own family's belief that all-you-can-eat is always-the-best. and they can eat with the best of them.
3. family game: poker. nuff said.
4. they like mountain biking!! my favorite!
5. they are competitive, but not annoying about it. we played lots of ladder ball and ultimate frisbee.

6. they love love hiking.

7. they play! like, old fashioned playing. and that really evidenced itself when we were in the water together. somehow, they managed to merge kayaking, frisbee, and swimming all in one.

anyway... i guess i'm just feeling lucky to have such great inlaws. i always grew up hearing horror stories about "The In-Laws". but haven't had any of my own, thank heavens.
