Cabin with the Thomsens

We have just returned from another fun weekend at the cabin. We went up with our friends, the Thomsens. Jer and I have known Ed and Shelley since our early working days at Lutheran Brotherhood. It is so fun to watch our kids play together now.

It was a gloomy day on Saturday, we got to play in the lake a little before the storms rolled in.
It cleared up in the afternoon, so we got to go on a boat tour around the lake.
Here are Ed, Peyton and Miles.Shelley and Sawyer
Lucy, Peyton and Miles
We made a quick visit to Jer's Aunt and Uncle's cabin. They were up along with cousins Jodi and Greg and their son Alex. Alex had a lot of fun playing the kids. We just have one picture of the kids playing with Greg.On Sunday morning we had good weather so we all got to play outside. Peyton caught his very first fish off the dock!
They also got in some swimming time. Here is Miles enjoying the water.
Peyton cooled off after fishing.
Miles and Lucy were instant friends. Here they are taking a tour of the yard on Sunday.

We have to end with a sad report. Lucy had her first experience with swimmer's itch. Jer had some bumps show up on Saturday and Lucy woke up with red bumpy legs on Sunday morning. Here they are checking it out.

Don't worry, Lucy is just fine. We heard some complaints about the itching from Jer, but our little trooper Lucy hasn't even fussed.

Thanks to Ed, Miles, Sawyer, Shelley, & Peyton for a great weekend.

Oh man! David and Grant had that too! Poor Dave... I asked him about a date he was going on. He said, "Are you kidding? I'm not going! I look like a FREAK!" His was all the way up both legs, and both arms... and so, so itchy. But Grant... didn't complain much either. Funny, these tough little tikes! Cute pics.
