A Trip to the North Shore

Anja and Milla ready to go . . . Anja requested a snack (Goldfish crackers) the moment we started moving.

This past week took us to the North Shore of Lake Superior with Erik's parents. We enjoyed a whole lot of relaxing and exploring Northern MN just a bit. In Grand Marais we took in Sven and Ole's Pizza, Chez Jude, Java Moose and The World's Best Donuts. We ended our four-night excursion in Duluth, where we made S'mores and walked the shore. I think it was a much needed break for everyone! Thanks, Paul and Marilyn!


The big draw in Silver Bay was the promise of a frog slide . . . it didn't disappoint! Milla watched from the sidelines--next year!


Can you spot the "A?" Anja did!


Proof that on occasion, Anja does nap. This nap started in the car . . . Erik successfully made the transfer.


This photo is for Peter and Kathryn . . . we hope that Peter is "Jumping Around" the next time we see him. (Thanks you two!) Milla did more lounging than jumping around in Grand Marais.


Anja chasing some strange bird on the shore in Grand Marais. (Sorry bird!)

We visited Betsy Bowen's studio in GM. It's located in an old Norwegian Lutheran church, which is now home to the GM Playhouse.

Milla's beautiful blues (checking out her G'pa Paul).


After a hard day, Nana gets a foot rub from Anja and G'pa Paul.
