4th of July Vacation at the Lake!

We spent a wonderful extended weekend at the lake with family and friends.  It was so nice to get away from the stresses of home (granted, travelling with children presents its own stresses) and spend some time as a family in northern Minnesota.

Thanks to Fred and Debbie for a great vacation and letting us set up our circus at their cabin!

Libby & Julie are ready for the festivities!

A relaxing afternoon in the shade.

A wonderful beach sandbox for the kids to enjoy.  And they sure did!
