4th of July

We had a wonderful 4th of July weekend with some good friends, Pete and Sonja and their kids! We all had a great time up at Eagle Lake, near Battle Lake. Several of these photos are courtesy of Sonja Ahlquist, who has a photography business! Thanks, Sonja, for the great photos!! :)

Fun way to start off the trip to the cabin...donut shop!

Ahhhhhhhhhh....the lake.

Battle Lake has a fun little ice cream/candy shop called Grandma's Pantry, and it's always fun to "go into town" and grab an ice cream treat!

Yeah, we didn't let any of the kids wander off. (If the parent wanders off, can the parent get an espresso?!)
