Catching up on Summer- Stallings Family Reunion

This year the Stallings Reunion was at Rendezvous Beach in Bear Lake. Most of the family made it and man was it a blast! I have only been a member of the family for 4 years but it is amazing how much I love each of them. While we were at Bear Lake we did all of the "Bear Lake" things there are to do. One of the things they are most famous for are their raspberry shakes. I will admit they are heavenly. All of the places claim to have the best. I guess one summer we will have to go buy one from each food joint and judge for ourselves.

The Stallings family are extremely caring, supportive and super chatty. What a fun family to be a part of. We spent most of the reunion in a big circle of camp chairs just talking up a storm-literally! Every night we were there, save the first, it blew and down poured like crazy. It came and went pretty fast but it was mean while it lasted.

We all went down to the Lake to swim and "Bam!" a storm came in. Sunny one minute, stormy the next.

On Saturday morning we had a golf scramble. We were in 3 teams of 4. Team #1 was Nate, Jinky, Brandon and Tyson. Team #2 was Andrea, Greg, Cameron and James. Team #3 was Me, Chris, Mom and Dad. We played nine holes of hacking, some goodness and fun. I remember on the last hole there was a massive hill/mountain between the tee box and green. Chris and Dad cleared it thank goodness! I hit it right in the middle of the fairway but not far enough that it got over. It rolled right down to the bottom. Our team came in 2nd.

The golf cart of love.

On Saturday we got smart and went swimming before the inevitable storm. Bear Lake is awesome/strange because you can walk out a really long way before it gets too deep to stand. We put Logan in his little yellow tube and we just chilled in the water with Andrea, Greg, Kez and Davian. Perfect summer afternoon.

Swimmin'.

From Thursday to Sunday we enjoyed the company of some fantastic people, ate a lot of delicious food and caught up. We had so much fun! Thanks for the memories!
