We meet up with our neighbors to play at the park and enjoy the great weather.

All the girls except for Claire!

The next three pictures are so Kaelyn! 
She is always cracking us up with her silly faces!



Claire loves to swing and usually cries when you take her out :)

The big girls on the swings.

"Look mom, no hands!"

Claire had fun exploring and digging in the rocks.

While we were playing at a friends house, Kaelyn dressed up and I asked her who she was and she said "I'm Cool Cat" with such a smug attitude... it was so cute!

Rock Is done!

I finally figured out the colors for the "rock"! I think it turned out really good! Now we can go and just relax... all the big projects are done... for now ;) Ha!



I need to stain the cedar posts under the porch yet but I have to wait until spring.

Cabin update

8.21.14
Joe and I took the girls out for supper at Bugaboo Bay in Alexandria.
Ashlyn is eating an Alligator Egg Roll. They were a little greasy but tasted really good! Kaelyn liked them too! The girls had so much fun looking at all the tropical fish tanks, watching the people play volleyball and going in the bounce house before we left.  What a fun place! We will defiantly going back there :)



Collecting worms for fishing after Joe and I did some landscaping :)

We removed a "decorative" retaining wall - it was rotten and UGLY!
The yard is getting whipped into shape. The siding is done too,  it turned out great! It was an amazing transformation for sure! I'm still working on painting the 'rock'. It's a stamped cement that looks like rock. I've been struggling finding the right color combination that I like. I will update when I figure that out!


Crazy skies on our way home

Sleepy Claire bear all snuggled in :)

Girls weekend!

8.18.14

Another gorgeous day at the cabin! 
The girls and I went up for the week and Joe joined us for the weekend. The girls got to play and go swimming while I got to do some painting and some yard work done.  The long list of things "to do" is getting shorter... things are really starting to come together and the place is starting to look pretty good!      


Claire and her favorite toy at the cabin! 
She pushes her tractor around all the time.


Taking in the view of the lake from the porch in her pajamas!

art is elementary

5.11.14

Ashlyn's painting was chosen to be a part of the 
South Central Regional Elementary Art Show at Gustavus Adolphus College.  
What an honor! 
I think there were only 6 kids chosen from her K-2 school (approx 500 kids). 
We are so proud of her!


The invite to come see her art at the Schaefer Fine Arts Gallery.
It was on display May 7th to May 30th.
