My summer vacation...

Just got back from a fun filled week with my family, my parents, my sister and her family in Northern Minnesota. Woke up each morning to a gorgeous sunrise....Ended each evening with yummy s'mores. Doesn't get much better than that! Here was our creation of a brownie with fire roasted marshmellow and graham cracker. Yum!It's always a treat to spend time with my sister. She and her family live in San Diego. They come home to Minnesota in July and for Christmas. We ran down a dirt road through the woods many mornings. Enjoyed the giggles and the heart-to-heart chats.Here is Chloe with her cousin Annika getting ready to enjoy the beach.
Chloe was always looking for treasures.
We of course crafted using the natural materials that she found.

Lowell drew pictures in the sand. Chloe also got an opportunity to fish for the first time.The big catch by my brother-in-law and nephew, Lars. Made for a yummy dinner!

Lowell enjoyed hanging out on the dock, boating and playing in the water.

Hubby and I even hit an antique shop. He had better luck than I did!
Our final day ended with a rainbow across the lake. A fitting ending to a glorious summer week together.
