Doug Bingham Family Reunion 2008

We had a quick getaway to Bear Lake for our family reunion. From boating, hiking and crafting to the Pickleville Playhouse melodrama, it was a smashing time! The highlights of the weekend included:

1. Making the traditional family breakfast of Eggs Golden. Have you ever seen these commercials called SprintCuts? They are pretty hilarious and when I saw Kevin and Holly with a pot full of boiled eggs to peel I knew we had to try it out. It did work once or twice but when they say exhale with gusto, they mean it!

2. Bicycle Built for 6. Riding these fun bicycles on the bike trail was a hit and we were fortunate enough to run into a cute little lemonade stand right when we were panting and thirsty.



Andy was showing his biking skills on the banana bike!

3. Pranking on the Beach. We put Natalee up to dumping water on Andy and you can see the mischief in her face!


4. Boating, tubing, and skiing. I love this picture because Ally is giving the signal to cut it and Andy is giving the signal to speed up.





This is me lounging in the boat, but I did water ski, it just didn't get photographed!


5. Our hike, or attempt at hiking.

Thanks everyone! We had a really great time.

If Mia had come to the Bingham (extended family) Reunion, she would know. They are yummy. I'm going to miss Bear Lake this year, it is such a tradition. Good to know you are keeping it alive!
