Hall Reunion at Bear Lake-#2

Two years ago we gathered the extended Hall family at a big house in Bear Lake over Fall break. This time we wanted to go in the summer to enjoy the beach and lake more, but when I went to make a reservation the same house was not open anytime in the summer (by mid-January).  The vote was the house was the key so we picked a weekend in September--17th through the 20th.

This time all of our kids were able to come except for Tosha and family in Japan.  The weather was beautiful and we had a restful and fun time being together. Ben came up on Thursday which was his birthday so we were able to have birthday cake with him before Gary and he headed home that night.

We didn't really do anything spectacular but it is just good to be together in a beautiful spot.  Uncle Mike, Scott and Chantel and several others went shooting on Saturday and had a great time.

The only downside for me was I started feeling sick with a cold on Saturday which hung around for the next 2 weeks---mortal bodies, you have to love them!
