Bear Lake Glamping

I got the idea to head up to Bear Lake for a "camping" trip, since we hadn't been camping all summer and it would be too cold soon to get to go at all.  We were already up in Logan for Brittney's wedding, so why not?  The idea came from all places, a food blog that I follow.  I heard about it from the blog I get recipes from and she talked it up so much that I couldn't resist.
It turned out to be quite possibly the best family vacation I've ever had.  It was soooo much fun!!  It was at Conestoga Ranch and it is called "glamping".  Basically it is camping but not roughing it so much.  We got to stay in a covered wagon with beds and there were showers and playgrounds and a little store and a beautiful view not too far from the lake.  The best part was that everyone came - even Bret and Uncle Jared.
I also got some of the most adorable photos of our fun time there!
Keenan was so happy to get to go on his first camping trip.  Here he is checking out mom and dad's bed in the wagon
So comfy!
the girls LOVED it there!
All the kids getting a good look at our sleeping quarters
Bret and Jared each got to take a bunk
Pure joy!
Avril plays with Keeney on the bed
lots of smiles and laughter
So sweet
Next we ordered pizza from the restaurant and roasted some dogs... we had the fire pit all to ourselves, which was so nice 😊

Keenan loved all the open space to roam around outside!
So so happy to be outside

I really think we have the cutest baby on the planet...
And he is very loved 💗
No smile quite like Keeney's.  Brings my heart happiness

Such a happy baby!
Next we pulled out our rented Razor and Bret pulled out his 4 wheeler and we explored the trails around us.  It was so much fun.  And so bumpy!
Bret was nice enough to get us a trailer to carry our toys
Let's do this!

Dreaming about a lot for a Bear Lake cabin... sigh...
So glad we were able to do our glamping weekend.  Many fun memories.  We should do it every year!
