My Hooligans

I never thought I'd see the day that all three kids would look at the camera at once and actually be smiling. I love this picture. Notice my little Rexy'x mischevious twinkle (he gets this from his daddy), Ella's sweet pose and Zeke is eating his fingers as usual these days.

Ella, Rex and Zeke in Grand Marais


This morning, it was so beautiful as the fog lifted from Lake Superior off into infinity. It had rained very hard the night before, but the day already promised lots of sunshine and warm temps. We are all having so much fun on our very needed and highly anticipated vacation. Rex asks us every day (while we are here) if we are going to "Grand Marais" today? I am thinking he does't understand the concept of we ARE in Grand Marais. To him it has been a mirage for so long and when we finally arrived he is lost to confusion. None the less, he loves the water and throwing rocks. He continues to keep us in absolute wariness as he thinks nothing of wandering and exploring by himself. (So much for vacation.) Zeke is doing awesome and catches naps anywhere he wants as we stroll around town, shopping, grabbing a java or dining at Sven and Ole's. Ella wants to do everything at once and is disappointed when we can't. Oh to be a child again!
