Family Staycation

This summer (the week before school started) we took a little family vacation. More of a "staycation", since we did not go outside a 2 hour radius from our home. But we were gone a total of four nights and there is something to say about the four of us being together for that bit of time. It was awesome and set the precedent pretty high for future family vacations;) We spent the first two nights camping in Estes Park. The boys did their fair share:















There was much time to perfect Light Saber moves:












But no worries, there was much much more than Star Wars. We drove up Bear Lake Road which follows Glacier Creek through about 10 miles of spectacular scenery to Bear Lake, one of the few sub alpine lakes that is accessible by car. Here we are at Bear Lake at 9,500 ft:

































Of course pictures do not do justice.....but beautiful nonetheless:
