Cabin 8/26-29

Leah went up to the cabin with Nonna and Grandpa on 8/17. Joe, Amber and I didn't get to join them until 7/23. We were also joined by Joe's mom, Mary. It is always nice to be up at the lake!

Leah had a great time with Nonna and Grandpa before we arrived. They were joined from Wednesday to Friday by Dan, Tiff, Thea and Delila. Of course, the girls had a fabulous time together.

Joe and Grandpa took Leah to get a real fishing pole. She is learning to cast with it. She is doing pretty good. Before we got there, she was fishing with grandpa (with her barbie fishing pole) and she told me that she caught 2 rock bass. I don't even know what a rock bass looks like!

Amber walked up the entire flight of stairs up the hill (which is a lot) just holding my hand. I have decided that she is going to be a future tennis player, because with every step up...she grunts!

Amber didn't want to have much to do with the lake water, until we went to the public beach on the lake for a picnic/play time. She ended up sitting with me in the water - splashing and watching her sister play for about 45 minutes. It looks like she might be getting more comfortable with the lake water. Leah is still a bit shy about the lake. It is so funny because she is not shy at all in a pool. She doesn't like to put her head under water in the lake...because of the fish!

We had a nice visit with Aunt Sara who came on 8/26, and Priscilla who came on 8/29.

It is always a sad day when we have to leave. But we had to get home...Leah had open house for 1st grade!
