Memorial Day weekend

For Memorial Day weekend we were lucky enough to make it out in the boat 2 out of the 3 days. We went to Demontraville Lake on Saturday, where Andrew tested out his new fishing pole. The lake is full of little sunfish that follow boats around, so he loved that he caught a lot of fish. He was more about quantity of fish, then size, so it was perfect. Jenna wasn't too into fishing, but enjoying watching the fish that we put in an ice cream pail for her to look at. She even dropped a few fruit snacks into the bucket as food.

On Sunday, we went to Lake Elmo, and had a lot of fun. We got to fish, play in the sand, play catch, and test out the new tube.

Monday we went to a birthday party for a family friend, but prior to that, Jenna showed off her fashion sense. She got her shorts wet while helping water plants, so she needed to change her shorts, this is how she came down:

A little while later she came in from outside, with her play phone, and dress up shoes added to the outfit. She told me she was riding the lawn mower with Daddy....and NOT playing in the mulch....which based, on her tights, wasn't true: (she did admit to it, after I asked if she was sure she wasn't playing in the mulch - "well, maybe just a little bit" is what she told me)


We helped Isaac celebrate his 3rd birthday on Monday afternoon/evening. Here's the birthday boy with his cake:

The water rocket, was a huge hit with the kids and dads, and entertained everyone for a while.



It was a busy, but fun weekend. We all enjoyed being out in the boat, and enjoyed the beautiful weather.
