Lake Calhoun

Are you kidding me? Look at those eyes!
She could have stayed on this swing for the rest of the day.
Darla and Mama.
Those arms are very characteristic of our little Teeny.
Today we visited Lake Calhoun. It was VERY windy, but we still had a wonderful time. We built sandcastles, threw rocks into the water, watched all the dogs run by with their owners (there is a running/biking path that goes all the way around the lake), fed the seagulls, and swung of the swings that were right there on the beach. Wish the water (and the air) would have been warmer so we could have gone for a swim. I'm sure we will later in the summer. We love having Daddy around but are missing him in the evenings. Erik was able to get a job with the Minnesota State Health Department for the summer. I'm proud of him for finishing his semester, let alone his first year of Grad school and for getting a job! What a guy. I'll tell you - I married a good one. Great day.
