Lake Weekend

Despite the recent incessant MN rain, we were blessed with the perfect recipe for swimming, boating, and sitting on the porch at Grandma & Grandpa's lake home this weekend!  Ahhhhhh.

Piper started the weekend out right... with a sleepover complete with swimming, dilly bars, visits to her great grandparents, rescuing chipmunks from the pool, and bike rides just her and Grandma & Grandpa!!  She LOVED it!

Much to Bryndel & Hadley's delight we were greeted not only by Piper, but also Kenzie & Cylas when we arrived Friday afternoon! 

Tried our hand at a little fishing Saturday morning, before heading into the pool!

Bryndel wasn't quite sure what to think at first, but eventually 'warmed' right up thanks to Grandma & Grandpa's heated pool :)

Hadley probably spent more time under water than above, and Piper spent so much time swimming around with that noodle that she got 'noodle pit' (rug burned armpits, ouch!).

After a fabulous afternoon in the pool, we headed out for a leisurely (a no-wake provision was put in place due to the extreme rainfall!) boat ride on our way out for dinner. Bryndel seemingly handled her lifejacket much better this summer, whew.

We topped the day off with a walk to check out all of that local flooding.

And of course, the girls got in a Sunday morning swim with a giant shark, otherwise known as Grandpa.  It was the perfect weekend at the lake.  Thanks Grandma & Grandpa, We love you!
