memorial day weekend 6

This kid had a birthday.

Alicia's parents bought a cabin a few years ago, and this weekend, Alicia's brother and family were at the lake.  All the kids were excited to celebrate.



Maria was there for the afternoon, so nice.
The brake on their stroller was stuck, so this stroller came in handy, which was nice. We bought it last winter for Elin in case she needed to be transported.  She never did need that, thank goodness, so the wagon just sat in the family room in the way.
Fishing with kids:
Tree frog!


And this hammock is more of a piece of stunt equipment than anything else.  The things that go on involving this hammock are energetic and creative, for sure.

And then, at the end of the day, everyone tackled clean up for a couple hours and we're all back at home again.

Lovely weekend.   Love, Val

A couple boat rides:






This one reminds me of an old 50s postcard:

Out in the sun, out in the water:







So much love, Grandma, aka MOM

They were so happy to be together.




That guy in the blue has grown like crazy over the winter.

The orioles were building a nest right over our heads.
They set up this old tent for them to play in.
It kept her contained and she loved being in the middle of the action.
There's our busy bird.

And these guys walking with a chippy in the road.

 Love, Grandma

Back in the field in the evening sun:



This girl in her happy place. She loves that art cabinet.

Love, Grandma
