We had a hilariously fun weekend at Grandma & Grandpa's lake. While the MN weather was not the most conducive for swimming or starting on that tan, we found plenty of time to start the summer out right. It began with an evening filled of cousin love. Kyle, Brooklyn, Hadley, & Jeremiah whooped it up in the front yard along with Mike & Nathan while the women folk watched from the sidelines. Even my cousin, Katie and her little sweet Audrey joined us for the evening! Piper & Audrey are just about a year apart.
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Nathan & Heidi's 'new' 100+ year old Victorian home on Saturday morning. The house is (and will be even more with their tlc) spectacular, and will make a fine home for the newlyweds (I can still call them that, right?).

Then it was back to the lake for some good food (Rocky Road pizza) and more fun with the cousins!
This is a slightly different look than from the day before, as these two little buddies had barely said hello to one another before they stripped off their clothes and skinny dipped in the pool Friday night!
The rain finally let up by evening, so we wrapped up the day with some fishing off the dock at sunset. Great fun was had by all, especially Piper!
We had high hopes that Sunday would dawn a bit warmer, but despite the chilly 60 degree temps Grandma & Grandpa turned the pool into a vertible bathtub for the girls (93ish degrees!) and we swam away.
Piper would have preferred to watch from the sidelines, but we did eventually get her in for a bit. She wanted to do nothing but snuggle me in the pool, but she did at least get to try it out (and most importantly wear that darling orange swimsuit from Grandma).
So glad we got to see you - looks like the whole weekend was a blast! Much more enjoyable than Easter, right :)
