The Air Show.

For Bjorn's birthday this year, I got him tickets for the Air Show in Duluth. We had a great time. They were calling for stormy, cloudy weather but as soon as the show started the clouds cleared and it was just beautiful out, we both have the sunburns and great tan lines to prove it. Bjorn loved it, especially seeing all the older plans from WWII.

The Blues Angles finished the show. They were awesome. I loved how loud they were and how close together and to the ground they flew. We would both love to go again.

Strawberry Picking Fun!


We went and picked strawberries on Friday. Ava had a lot of fun. She was shoving them in her mouth like crazy, stems, tops and all. She was a good helper! It's hard to see in the picture but her face is pretty red from all the eating she did.

4th of July Fun!

On Thursday we took Ava to spend the day in Duluth. We had a great time. Brian (Thanks!) got us tickets for a train ride and for the Depot. Ava loves trains. She had a great time looking at all the ones in the Depot, well, maybe not as much as Daddy did.

Cutie!


This was her favorite part of the day. Throwing rocks into the lake.



On Friday we stayed in town for the parade and then headed to the Cabin.

Splash!


Parker tripped her up on her rope. She fell down the deck stairs onto her face. Only had a little scratch on her nose.

We had a busy couple of days but it was a lot of fun!
