We spent our anniversary weekend up at Redfish Lake. Despite the less-than-stellar weather conditions (it rained both days, had thunderstorms both nights, and actually snowed on our way home!) we had a great time. It's kind of a cool "old time" family camp with cabins, a lodge, a restaurant, boat dock, and general store. We enjoyed breakfast in the lodge both mornings, looking out over the dock (see the black and white photo above), took walks on the many bike paths, and fished during the day. The sun came out from about 4-7 on Saturday so we rented a canoe and took turns paddling around the lake with Jake while Faith hung out on shore and Tanner got filthy dirty and soaking wet on the beach. Nights were cozy (once everyone finally fell asleep!) and the kids slept late both mornings. Our drive home was accompanied by a CD Brian had made for me for our anniversary that was copied from a tape he made me on one of our first dates, 7 1/2 years ago. It was fun to remember the days of our relationship pre-children and to enjoy the family we have created together. We will definitely go back next summer- hopefully wearing shorts instead of winter coats and hats!
