Soda Springs

 On our way home we stopped in Soda Springs to check out the geiser. The kids thought it was pretty neat!

 The water was luke warm and smelled of sulphur. It goes off every hour on the hour!

 So the town is called Soda Springs because there are springs that have carbonated water! I was a little nervous to let the kids dip their cups in and drink but the signs everywhere said it was drinking water. It didn't look super clean. The kids filled their water bottles and added koolaid packets as the instructions stated,and drank it up! They said it was definately carbonated but it had a little bit of a rusty taste if you drank it without the drink mix! It was pretty cool definately worth stopping to check out!

 The spring is under this covered building but I know it can't keep the animals out! Hmmm... That's why I couldn't bring myself to try it! No one got sick though so I guess it was drinkable! The kids thought it was Super cool!

Paris Springs Campground

 When we go to Bear Lake this is the campground that we really like. It's called Paris Springs Campground. We decided this trip that we have outgrown this tent. We really need to get a camp trailer. It was all we could do to stuff everything into the back of the suburban there was almost not enough room for the kids!

 One of our favorite things to make camping is this popcorn.

 Love just sitting around the campfire talking and laughing! It might be just me but I think my kids are hilarious!

 MMMmmmm... Smores a must have for any camping trip. Can you tell how good it is just by looking at this cute dirty little face!

 We usually only go for a couple of nights and by the second night this is how we all feel! WORN OUT! And Dirty!

We walked up to the beginning of the stream it's only about 300 yds not to bad of a hike! It's so pretty. This will probably be our only camping trip this year. It's so hard to get everyones schedules to match to do anything.

Bear Lake 2014

 A couple weekends ago we went down to Bear Lake! Love it there! Wish we lived a little closer!

 The kids had so much fun playing in the water and the sand!

 Brylei made this with shells she found on the beach. It's kind of hard to see it says We Love Bear lake!

 These two loved to get wet then roll in the warm sand!

I think we brought home a gallon of sand just in swim suits and towels!
