Up North!

last week we had the privilege of staying at a cabin up north at eagles nest resort near nisswa with my family! we had a blast and the weather was perfect - no rain! cruz and grandma judy were best friends...he could hardly stand to be away from her. we enjoyed walking up to nisswa on the paul bunyan trail everyday whether it was for coffee, some shopping or ice cream! heath went fishing several mornings - unfortunately the fish didn't seem to want to participate in his games. on thursday we rented a pontoon and had fun cruising around the lake, eating snacks, doing a little fishing and jumping in the water. thankfully cruz seems to love the water and isn't afraid once he's adjusted to the cooler temperature (compared to the 91 degree water at swimming lessons!). our cabin was cozy, but we made it work (it was kind of like colombia again with heath, cruz and me all in one room that had a crib, a twin bed and a full bed!).

here are some pics from our fun week:

a big thank you to grandma & grandpa johnson for a fun vacation! and thanks to tia mel for helping watch and play with cruz. we had a great time and are ready for next year...hmm, wonder how that will work with two kiddos?! :)

have a great labor day weekend!
