Memorial Day Weekend

We are so blessed to be able to celebrate Memorial Day weekend at my Grandpa's cottage. It is a wonderful place full of memories for me... and now my girls. It's funny how just the smells of the cottage bring back 30 years of wonderful memories!

Saturday the water was a little chilly, but we easily got used to it because it was so hot outside with no breeze!

The ritual of aligning the barefooting ropes. Olivia tries to help Grandpa and Daddy.

Sophie had her first pooping accident. Brad made her sit in it for awhile. She wasn't thrilled!

What a great weekend!I think Sophie said it best when she threw up her arms and exclaimed "We're at the cottage!" It was priceless.

It is time that Olivia starts skiing instead of giving advice on how long the barefoot ropes should be. Stacey even skied already this year. It must have been warm and smooth. GrandmaH will wait until 99 degrees and zero wind with no one around for miles to watch. But, She will do it. (That's what he thinks) Ha!
