Memorial Day - on the lake

This Memorial Day we visited a cabin on a lake in Northern Wisconsin with some people from our church. It was a blessed weekend remembering those who gave their lives for our country, our flag and our freedom. We were out in the sticks of WI in a little town called Trego and we attended cerimonies at a little cemetary in the littler town of Earl, yep, Earl (does that mean the whole town consisted of a man named Earl at one time?!) lol.
We enjoyed spending time on the beautiful lake outside the cabin observing the pair of loons on the water and the pair of Bald Eagles with their nest in the trees. But Megan most enjoyed spending time on the floor in front of the fan as the cabin had no AC (cause it wouldn't really be a cabin if it did ... right?). And it was hot - records broke up here this weekend as it hit 97 on sunday and 95 on monday up here by the Twin Cities.
Meg is getting to be an expert traveller because she did great on the three hour trip both ways - on the way home, after we stopped for some excellent A&W food and root beer, Meg "talked" and squealed almost the rest of the way. She is really finding her voice recently. =)

So, we hope you all had a superb holiday weekend as we remembered our veterans, spent time with friends and family and enjoyed the blessings of the free country we live in.
God bless.

Meg talks to me while on mommy's lap: ooooh...

I FOUND THE USB CABLE!

Thank God I finally found the USB cable for our digital camera! Now I can get all these pictures off my camera and onto the web for you all to enjoy as well. I had 116 photos stuck on my camera's memory card. lol
Well, since we logged in last we had the great pleasure of Tiffany's sister Tracy visiting for a week and a half after getting out of school out on the West Coast. Tracy had not seen Megan before and immediatly fell in love with her - they spent lots of time together. Megan was very amused by Tracy's antics and silly songs that she sang for her - Tracy was a great help and blessing to Tiff and I by helping out with Megan and around the house the whole time she was here. I'll have some pictures of Megan, Tiffany and Tracy later hopefully.
Megan also broke her first 2 teeth!! They cut through yesterday morning - without any fever or sickness or really any substantial crying. We are so blessed by Megan's peacfulness! (maybe she'll make up for it in her teen years is what I keep thinking =P). Anyway, she has two little, sharp white teeth poking up through her bottom gums - her two front teeth on the bottom.
With Summer here finally, Tiff is dressing her up in lots of cute summery outfits - which I'm sure all you ladies will really enjoy.
So, sorry about the wait between photos and updates, thank-you all for your continued prayers for Megan. She is healthy and strong and growing well - we cannot help but praise and thank our great God for his awesome work of life and growth in her. To Him be all the glory.

Finally Some More Photos!! Collage Of Our Trip To Northland

Sorry about the long, long absence of photos on the site. I've been searching everywhere but I can't find my USB cord for our digital camera - we have tons of cute photos of Megan, but we can't get them off our camera. ugh.
Anyway, here are some photos my Dad took of us and Megan at Northland Baptist Bible College for my brother's Graduation last weekend.
Megan was so cute and did ok with all the people holding her. =) She handled the trip like an angel - thank you to all who prayed for her and us as we drove.
