Above are pictures from Scott and Jessica's wedding reception. What a fun day!! Maggie's favorite part was the barn dance! There are a few more pictures that I added at the end of the September album in Picasa.

1st annual Surf & Turf

On Saturday I did my first paddle board/ run duathlon. We paddled 2 miles around Lake Ann in Chanhassen and then ran 3 miles on beautiful wooded trails. It was really a fun race and the weather was awesome!! Above is a little video of the start- I only saw one person fall off.....and it wasn't me!
Once you hit the play arrow, hit the little square on the bottom right corner to make it a full screen and I am wearing a white hat and red life jacket.

Labor Day with the Demullings!

Trent and Aimee and fam came home for Labor Day weekend. Grandma and Grandpa had all of their kids and all 8 of their grandkids together!!! The picture above is of the Taylor's Falls Princess. We rode it on the St. Croix on Sunday. It was a beautiful day and a fun ride. More pics in the picasa web album.
Here is Grandma reading to the older grandkids. Grace, Coop and Ruby were already sleeping.
Here we are after the boat ride. And below is the pic of the whole family!

Happy 1st Birthday RUBY!!

Ruby had a great birthday! I can't believe that she is already one! We celebrated with the grandmas and grandpas and Toni and D fam and Chris and Jen fam up at Oak Knoll Park by our house with a little barbeque and play time at the splash pad. She loved her chocolate cake and wore it well! There are more August pictures in the Picasa album.

A great birthday!

I just had to post a picture of the delicious chocolate cake that Maggie and Chuck made for me!!! They did it all on their own and it was really great!! There were plenty of sprinkles on there (pretty sure that was Maggie's job). It was a great day!!

Fun Times at the cabin!

We spent a whole week at the cabin and had a great, relaxing time. Grandma and Grandpa Demulling and Toni and John and the kids also came up and spent a few days with us.
Maggie likes to ride in the tube behind the boat and also just float in it on the shore!
Our latest purchase is a paddle board from Silver Creek Paddle (Rob and Dee Dee's new business). We had a lot of fun paddling around the bay. There were a few nights Chuck paddled out to see the sunset around the edge of the bay. The early morning and evening rides where the water is completely calm are our favorites!
I was a bit skeptical of Chuck when he decided that we needed a speed boat, but I'm glad he talked me into it! We have really enjoyed it! From taking the kids out on the tube, to pulling the adults on skis it has been great fun! We have even used it to go for an evening ride and put kids to sleep!

Happy 4th of July and the Tucon Souvigniers visit!

We had a great 4th of July this year! The Tucson Souvigniers were in town and we all spent the weekend up at the cabin. The weather couldn't have been better and it was so nice to all be together! I have finally updated the picasa web album with some more pictures from the summer!
