A weekend up north

Mary, Anika and I headed up north on Friday to spend a weekend with the Trzynkas, Strattons, and Olsons. We rented a cabin on Kimball Lake, just north of the Brainerd area. The cabin was more like a mansion (the pictures tell it all http://www.northlandcabincare.com/rental/kimball_lake/index.htm). The 15 of us had a great time.

Anika was the youngest one up there and she was just starting to crawl, so she had a tough time keeping up with the rest of them, but she still had a great time.

There was plenty of fishing off of the dock and the kids caught quite a few small sunnies and a couple of bass. Lexi is quite serious about her fishing

They were told they couldn't eat supper until they caught it...these three went to bed hungry.

Anika wasn't quite sure about the lake water, it was actually quite nice.


I wonder if kayaks come in an XL?

Now this looks a little more comfortable.

Some views from the beach

There was an attempt to all 7 of the kids to sit still for a kids group shot...as you can see it went well.
We finally did manage to get a group shot together.
