Ahhhh..............Vacation!! :)

Todd & I rented a cabin on Spirit Lake (6 mi. south of Aitkin, MN) for a week.....July 12-19. It was so beautiful there! :)

Our 1st day there, we had some rain & saw a beautiful double rainbow!


On Sunday, we drove about an hour to Jenkins, MN visit my friend, Deb & her family. We went to church with them in Pine River & then spent the afternoon with them..........including a yummy BBQ complete with strawberry shortcake...........with fresh strawberries from Grandma's garden. :) Amanda, Deb, Michael, Grandpa & Grandma Hall & Shane in front.

We got to go for a ride on our friends, Dick & Cindy's boat. Very fun!


Dick & Cindy & their kids, Matthew, Katie & Corey rented the "cabin" next to us. I use quotes because theirs was really a house. Very nice. I brought some games up to play with the kids. Here we are playing Sum Swamp.


Sunrise on Spirit Lake.

Todd's mom & step-dad drove down from Duluth on Tuesday to spend the day with us.


Corey & Katie helping Todd with his word-find puzzle. :)


This is our cabin. We weren't more than 12-15 ft. from the lake........if even that. It was wonderful!
Sunset on Spirit Lake.


The beautiful pink clouds at sunset.

Todd & me sitting on the dock.


A loon on the lake. On Sunday night, we heard at least 5 or 6 of them on the lake at one time. It sounded like a big party.


Me barbecuing hotdogs.

Todd making mac & cheese to go with our hotdogs.


This was the view from the front window of our cabin. :)
