Random Saturday Pictures

Siren, WI - Main Street

 Doesn't every eight year old drink Miller Lite?

 (Calm down, people, she didn't really drink it)

The lakes too cold to catch anything, but it's fun to cast anyway.

Random days are the best!

It's a Mystery!

7:00 PM

7:00 AM (the following morning)

How does this happen?

While all the stories I've read have little elves or magical critters who appear at night and do work for you while you sleep, apparently my little magical critters make more work for me.

How Did This Happen?

One day they start kindergarten, and the next thing you know they're graduating from college!  People told me it would be like this. "Oh, the time goes by so fast," they'd say.  I'd nod in agreement, but not really realize what they were telling me.

So, in the blink of an eye, Evan went from this...

To this....

Well, the day has arrived.  My firstborn little bundle of joy, is now a college graduate.  Eleven years of homeschool, two years at a community college, and two years at the University of Minnesota, and presto!  College graduate.  And magna cum laude, at that.

Congratulations, Evan!  We couldn't be prouder of you!

Dear Window Manufacturer,

Requiring the removal of window hardware semi-annually for the taking on and taking off of screens is, as we would say in engineering school, poor design.  Please keep this in mind in all future window designs.

Sincerely,
Barb

Happy Mother's Day!!

Happy Mother's Day, Mom!  I love you tons and tons and tons!

Aren't they cute?!

We Told You Not To Do That

Chris:  "Why is your finger in the water, Molly?"
Molly: "I got a burnnnn!"
Chris:  "How did you get a burn?"
Molly: "I was playing with fire."

Cabin Opening

We were beginning to think that it was never going to happen, and we even had a few snow flurries today, but we have indeed officially opened the cabin!

The spring leaves have been raked...and why is that boy wearing shorts when it is only 45 degrees??

 

The windows have been washed and had their screens put on...

The boat lift and dock have been put in....after lengthy consultation...

And a poem was written about a stick on the shore.

We are officially ready for summer to arrive (and stay!).  Hoping the forecast for 90 degrees on Tuesday is accurate!!
