Bear Lake with the Burtons

My cute sister Sommer and her family wanted to surprise my Mom and spend a weekend together.  We were fortunately able to use the Bear Lake Cabin (Thank you Joanne).  
As you can see...we are a crazy bunch of Burtons...so a good time was definitely had by all...at some point or another! :)
The first day was cold and rainy...but then the rain stopped and we got the most beautiful DOUBLE rainbow.  

It was the prettiest and definitely the most bright rainbow I've ever seen!
Drew wanted to take cute Ro out on the Kayak.  And Ro...happily let him!
Sommy was brave enough to trek through the weeds and stinky mud to bring Ro back.  (She's a nice momma)
Later the boys decided to head out and do a little snorkeling.  Cole was a little bugged that he wasn't included in on this plan!
But eventually he did get to make his way to the lake.  Thankfully Poochie was nice enough to carry him back to the cabin.
Aunt Ambie and Ro bonding over a little swing time.
Uncle Drew and baby Tavish.  Seriously the BEST BABY EVER!  I don't know that I've ever even heard of a more laid back and smiley, laughy baby than him!  I tried to steal him...but for some reason Drew and Sommy figured out my plan and nixed it!
A little golf time was had...look at the those forearms!  Back off ladies he's MINE!!  :)  
Corbin brought his cute friend Adam from our new ward.  Adam was a treat!  SO well mannered, polite and fun!  Corb took the time to show him how much he appreciated him by burying him in the sand...uh...rocks!  :)  NICE!  It was fun having him spend time with our family!
Sommy and Drew missed Jadesy's birthday by one day...but that didn't stop them from getting him the BEST gift EVER!  A Lego Star Wars ship and the LEGO movie!  Jaden has been on cloud 9 ever since and can frequently be seen flying his star wars ship EVERYWHERE...when's not watching the Lego Movie that is!  Sommy and Drew are the BEST at present giving!  They always put SO much thought into everything!  We sure do love them!  Thanks guys!
There's that happy sweet little baby I was telling you about!  :)  Just LOVE him!
Ambie even got in a little snuggle time with baby Tav.
And after a little drama....(What can you expect...we are a family of GIRLS)...we made up, took a few family pictures and had to say goodbye.  I hate that part!  I would give anything for Sommy and Drew to live closer to us.  It's so much fun when we all get together.  Drew is absolutely amazing!  My boys LOVE him.  He's not only playful with them, he's funny, always willing help, spends time planning the perfect presents, stays positive and takes good care of my sweet Sommy!  We certainly love spending time with them.  It was a treat to all be together especially with my cute Grandpa Burton. We spent a lot of time talking about family and the Gospel.  And he spent a lot of time sleeping in the porch swing soaking up the sun.  I certainly LOVE this family of mine and I feel so blessed that we are an eternal family!
