Visiting the Lake

We went to my sister Karen's cabin on Lost Island Lake over Memorial weekend. We had such a great time. Madeline LOVED the water and couldn't get enough. Zella was a little more skeptical but still had fun. Violet loved being on the boat and roaming the dock. I was afraid she was going to jump off the dock. She has no fear!

Madeline spent a lot of time driving the boat.

Quote of the Day

A "Girl Chatter" Day with Aunt Karen

Aunt Karen surprised Madeline on her birthday with tickets to the Steben's Children's Theatre in Mason City. Zella and I got to tag along and we had a great time. The girls had never been to a play before and they didn't know what to expect. The play was Snoopy!!! and they loved it! It was fun to see them smiling and hear them laughing at all the jokes. The cast was really talented. We definitely plan on going back.

Whenever "the girls" get together to do something fun Madeline and Zella refer to it as "Girl Chatter" time. This was one of the most fun girl chatter times we've had. :)

Not all my pictures turned out, but here are a few:
