Northern Minnesota With Grandma Sue and Grandpa Bob...Auntie Heather too!

We started off our Minnesota adventure by traveling to Northern Mn with The Summer side of the family. Big Thank yous to Kara and Jay for letting us use your cabin. We had so much fun!

While we were there the kids both caught their first fish, drove the pontoon, went for a ride in the canoe, saw a loon with babies, cooked over a campfire, went swimming, rode in Grandpa's boat, got way to many mosiquito bites...and witnessed Grandma caught a "monster" fish (however the pole was not strong enough and broke causing her to loose the fish). It was an incredible time with family. We were able to spend some quality time with Auntie Heather's new fiance, Nate and raze him alittle. We are so excited for the two of you. Lots of laughs, lots of fish...too many that got away...don't forget the net!, cards.....and great time with family! Here are some pictures of our northern MN adventure!Mommy and Daddy taking Wesley out in the canoe.

So Grandma and Grandpa got the kids competing with who was going to catch the bigger fish...boys...or girls....Wesley marched around saying "Boys catch the big fish, girls don't." But after the weekend was done....I have to crown the champion of the Biggest/Most Fish goes to the.......GIRLS! Sorry boys.




Before we left Wesley decided he wanted to "camp out" on the living room floor with Grandpa. Aren't they so cute!
