Elbow Lake Lodge--Long overdue

The last day, keeping the troops occuppied with a movie while the packing was happening.
Kylie and Brayden played so well--often we didn't know where they were because they were so busy together!
Tricia, Brayden and Breanna enjoying the warmth--Brayden and Breanna were a little nervous about this new water toy!
Breanna at the beach.
Avery got wet only one day, but she loved it!
The boys actually did pretty well kyaking (sp?) by themselves! Of course we didn't let them wonder too far from shore.
Checking out the water.

Cloe was a girl the boys met and loved--here they are on the trapoline. IT was really pretty cold, but the sun was starting to shine, so they thought they had to go out to the water trampoline. I took them all out on the paddle boat and then they jumped in a couple times--CRAZY! It is amazing they didn't catch pneumonia:)
Kylie jumped on the trampoline, but not in the water this day.
Tricia and Breanna checking out the dog.
Nathan by his mommy after a bath!
Ella LOVES babies--especially Avery--here she is showing her some love:)
The four Beckering boy cousins with Grandpa.
The four Beckering girl cousins, just hanging out!
It is long overdue this update! We have been back from the Beckering vacation for some time now, but with the whole house/move coming upon us so quickly, the blog has been neglected. We did have a great vacation up in Northern MN! The weather could have cooperated a bit better for us, but what can you do. The lodging is really nice and it is great that the lodge has more space for the kids to play indoors too! The guys were able to take in some fishing and Caleb and Bennet tagged along for a lot of the fishing--I think they might love it as much as their daddy some day! We all enjoyed games after the kids were in bed for the night. Of course much of our time was spent making, eating and enjoying a rediculous amount of food!!!:)
