More of fabulous MN

I figure it is better late than never.  We truly had the most amazing time with Diana and family in MN. I plan to make our blog into books for the kids and I want to remember every great moment of our trip. 

One early morning, we went strawberry picking....

Strawberry kisses!



Dave made a pie with the fresh strawberries and some blueberries.  He also made an incredible strawberry "relish" for our pork chops. Yummy!

Ainsley and I became fast friends.  Here we share a fizzy lemonade!

Dave gave the little girls a geology lesson and of course....

The girls played in and on the rocks!

Di took me for a spin on the jet ski.  It was so much fun!

Jeff (and Dave) looked after the kids for a while.

We were invited to a lake friend's house for some fun and games but Miss Kate was not budging.  I kept telling her it was time to go to the party.  She flopped down like this on the trampoline and said, "no party."

At the party, we played old fashioned games like three legged races.  Dave and Will  came in first.

My partner and I came in last (and I have the purple toes to prove it).

We played "pass the lime" and everyone won:)

Ruby whacks the pinata!

The kids met new friends.

Everyone learned to kayak.

We had a blast on the "Super Mable!"

We laughed!

And life long friendships were made.

Thank you again Di and Jeff, Ruby, Ainsley, Piper and Caymus.
