More cottage pictures

It was a gorgeous evening at the cottage last Friday and since Fishig Season didn't open till Saturday morning we decided to spend some time doing clean-up. After the hot tub was filled and heating and all the pumps set up and working we did some branch clean-up on the yard and made a bonfire to take care of some of it. Should have brought out the marshmallows. It was mild, and the lake was calm and there were NO MOSQUITOS!!













Erik, Amber and Hailey took advantage of the calm lake to take a cruise in the paddle boat.
Hailey enjoys being out in a boat and knows that she has to wear a life jacket to be out there. She also found her sand toys from last year and they were good entertainment and as much fun as new toys

.
Hailey in her colorful kerchief. She and Grammy Jo spent lots of time playing together and discovered that there are a lot of things that a doll blanket can be used for. In this picture she needed a hat so she got one, thanks to Grammy. It can also be used to decorate or as icing on a birthday cake . Who says that it is only good for wrapping up dolls?
