Ecclesiastes 4:12 (NLT)

"A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. THREE are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken."

First Canoe Trip


This past weekend, Daniel Boone (aka Dave Clark) decided to take us all on a family canoe trip in our canoe on the Uptown Lakes in Mpls. It was a beautiful sunny day and LTD had a blast (so did mom)!! We rowed around Lake of the Isles and Cedar Lake and had a grand picnic on the banks of Hidden Beach (used to be known for nude sunbathing but thankfully is now a public beach with swimsuits required). The kiddos loved all the ducks and geese and enjoyed singing "Row Row Row Your Boat". Dylan was especially fascinated with the kids that were jumping off the bridge into the water and wanted to try it himself. Uh, let's wait on that one!

I had a woman walk up to me at the swimming area on Hidden Beach while the kids were swimming and said, "Oh my, we saw you row in and I have to say you have the most beautiful family! You are so blessed!!!" Yes, indeed we are - thank you, God!!
