Lake Week-end

Weather was beautiful at the lake. When Jayden arrived, he immediately went down to the dock looking for the first seashells of the season.
The boys and Nathan prepare for their annual "Polar Bear Jump" into the icy water.
Nathan commented that the water was slightly warmer than last year's earlier jump.
Survivors of the Jump! Jayden even went in for a second!
Claire decides to wait at least another year for her jump. Taja accidently fell in, as she misjudged the space between the dock and pontoon!
Claire was pretty proud of herself using the "Big Rings" this week-end. She's grown taller, so can reach them now.
Snack Time on the Pontoon
Beautiful Friday evening pontoon ride.
Father-Daughter-Dog Moment
Happy Faces on the Season's First Pontoon Ride!
Guess the Silhouette!
Baseball Season begins!
The Cheerleader

The game wasn't quite as interesting as the sand pile!
How can you resist that smile!
We had lots of little projects this week-end. We brought up wood from our old deck to add to the wood pile.
Jerry has a 25 pound limit. Doctor's Orders!
"Boys with their nets" is a common sight at the lake.

The Work Crew


Pancakes and sausage starts the day out right!
Jason & Nathan haul in the jet-ski ramp.
Sand Sculptures

Jason mows the lawn for the second time this week. He had been visiting the Dunseith Port earlier in the week, and stopped after work to mow. Thanks, Jason!
Special Moments
Cousin Conversation
Mom & Dad drove up Saturday to enjoy the beautiful day with us.
Jayden is always happy to spend time with Taj.
Spending time with Great Grandparents is also the best!
Pontooning


Mom found a few spring clean-up jobs also.
Jayden and Grandpa played some catch.
It's hard to believe two weeks ago today Jerry had his heart attack. I'd say he's healing nicely!
Taking time to relax is a must at the lake.
Sherry found a few huge limbs.
Friends Brandi & Jeremy stopped up Saturday with baby Brayden. Tiff couldn't resist a little cuddle time.
The boys convinced Great-Grandma & Grandpa to take them to Walmart.

The Flom family is off and running. Stop again!
Great-Grandma comforts Cole with a warm compress following a painful insect bite.
Evening Cruise Time. Lindsay also came today.
Scooter Time
The Spectators
Campfire Time
Jason made wonderful pizza pockets and cherry turnovers from his new cookbook, "Campfire Cooking."
Oh, how Jayden loves this dog!
Playing cards with Daddy is SO much fun!
Claire often snuggles in for a "Pontoon Snooze." Taj mans the Captain's Post!






Nathan & Cole helped neighbors at the lake remove tree branches from their roof. Jeni, Nathan, Sherry, & Lindsay also helped them put their dock and boat ramp in. Helping others makes the heart feel good! (I'm sure Nathan could say this better!)
