A chilly Memorial Weekend


We opted out of tenting in the thunderstorms this year so my parents came for a visit on Saturday night and we spent Sunday at Park Point in Duluth and Jay Cooke State Park. Ethan thought it was 90 degrees outside and decided to take a little dip in Lake Superior....brrrrrr. After our picnic and some time on the playground, we headed to the trails at Jay Cooke State Park, or should I say the mud pit. We came out of the woods covered in Mud and a few ticks but tis the season for that. Afterwards, we headed to the Ranch (G&G Thompson's cabin in Willow River for a delicious  pork chop dinner. We then drove home in guess what, thunderstorms again. The kids were wiped out and didn't wake until 730 and 830! (which is a record in our house)
