End of an Era

Now that we are potty trained, it is time to get rid of the 5 1/2 year old changing pad that has long been all torn and tattered. Good riddance!

Happy Us (Yeah for 10 Years!!!)

On Friday the 13th, Randy and I celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary. We celebrated at the cottage where we had our wedding, had a surprise cake made for us from the bakery we had our wedding cake made (thanks mom and Chris!), ate a fine meal at Prairie Bay, revisited the B&B barn we spent our wedding night at (sadly we did not actually spend a night but were happy to see it was still operating), then watched the fireworks that our lake association puts on every July that we also enjoyed on our wedding night. It was a wonderful weekend that has wrapped up a decade full of love, adventures and family additions. Here is to the next 10 years!

The Lake is Where It Is At!

Row, Row, Row your boat

High Flying Sevi

Sevi is fearless in the water

A favorite activity for the boys, running and jumping off the dock.   I kept missing the actual splash entry into the water, but I thought these were funny with how they look like they are walking on water.

There is the splash!

The rubber boat has been this summer's inflatable hit.

Sevi and Tommy. How lucky are we that they boy's best brother team of Joey and Tommy also have a cottage in the same area!
