Memorial Weekend we headed about 3 hours north to join my Aunt and Grandparents camping at a cabin for the weekend. Maddy was SO looking forward to fishing, smores and playing at the park. The weather was less then stellar, but it was not raining all weekend which it was doing at home. So we took the overcast cool over rain!
Hanna was pals with Grandpa Ron all weekend. I think it’s just because they both like to eat
Then it was time to go fishing, which Maddy had been asking about since we pulled into the camp ground.
Grandpa Ron was the first to ever take me fishing only right it be Maddy’s first too.
Waving bye.
Maybe next year you’ll be old enough Hanna.
Fishing
Although she technically catch a single fish she “netted” many fish and she will tell you she “caught the biggest fish in the whole world.” Aw learning Grandpas stories already.
MMM, finally not too windy for a fire and smores ofcourse. And yes I’m a true Minnesotan with sweatshirts and flip flops.
Think she liked the boat maybe?
We headed into downtown Alexandria one day and did a little sight seeing. Not a great family picture, but a family picture none the less.
Feeding the ducks, another thing from my childhood!
Cousin Isaac came up for a day Maddy couldn’t of been happier. She even helped him build a fire.
Roxanne and I.
Sharing string cheese by the fire.
Sitting by the lake… I promise Adam was right there don’t panic… yes I’m looking at your Grandmas, Aunts and Nana’s
And ofcourse park fun!
Ofcourse when were going home the sun peaks out and it’s warmer. Ah well it was a wonderful weekend!
