Our friends the Kolts invited up to their cabin for a few days, so of course we had to take them up on their offer! It was about 5 hours north of the Twin Cities in WI. We had a great time, it was so relaxing and fun for Will. They have a beautiful cabin and the kids really enjoyed the water. While there we treated ourselves to Paul Bunyan's Shanty..... a very delicous breakfast. They just brought out food after food after food, and we ate and ate and ate, and ate some more. It was SO delicious, I would make the 5 hour trip back there just for the food!
Will and Scott really enjoyed the kayaks. I did too, but I'm not as coordinated as Scott. I kept banging Will in the head everytime I would row. Plus I'm kind of wimpy when it comes to arm strenght, so I had a hard time "driving" and not running into things.
Will is so enfatuated with slimy creatures. Anything that even resembles a bug or a spider or a frog or a fish or a snake he just thinks it is the coolest. So, of course he was so excited when Scott found a frog on the beach. Will would hold it and giggle and scream and then chuck it. It was pretty funny.
The boys also enjoyed the water trampoline. Have you noticed that I'm not in any of these pictures? That's because I was always too chicken to get in the water that was a tad nippy. People kept saying "it's so refreshing!" and then I would laugh at their blue lips and their shivering bodies, and say "wow, it looks like it!" The boys.... or should I say
men (plus 2 amazing girls) took the plunge at midnight! They said it wasn't so bad, but then we stood around the bonfire for about an hour trying to warm everybody up.
We had a lot of fun. The weather was so nice and cool, and the company was great too. We stayed up way too late, ate way too much, and had a blast. We are tired from our travels this summer, but we are looking forward to one more cabin trip to the North Shore with Scott's parents and 2 brothers. There can never be enough vacation, right? And there is always a lake we've never seen before. We can't wait to see our families and show them how truly beautiful MN is!!
