Summer has officially started!!






Hi everyone - I was giving my nieces so much crap the other night about never updating their blogs I figured I'd better update mine right away so they couldn't give me a hard time too! It was a great weekend at the lake - the area was certainally busier as people move back to the lake for the summer! The top pics are of the goose that has been visiting our lawn and leaving us reminders of such visits! Lovely - we are used to dog poop but now goose poop too!! Yuck. Our wonderful "neighbors" Mark, Dad, and Connor came to help Greg with the dock on Sat. It was so windy and cold on our side of the lake!! Greg really appreciated the help! The weather was ever changing, but we got a beautiful day on Sunday and I'm sure Deanne and Scott were thankful for that as they hosted Ashley's grad party at their beautiful house. It was decorated so cute and the food was wonderful! Thanks for inviting us and congrats to Ashley! It's nice to have everyone back at the cabin and we had a wonderful meal of free salmon (given to me) and free steak (won by me at the Pub Fri night) on Sat nite. We are all such good cooks!! Jenn and Mike and Briggs, and Kristin and Dave stayed at our house on Sat too. They looked a bit hungover on Sun morn as they were at the Sandbar listening to 32 Below. It sounded like they had a great time! Sunday nite after we had supper at Shoreham, we had a fire with our favorite people and only went to bed because the weather switched again and got cold!! It was a great night! This week will be extremely busy - we always pay for a day off at the bank by being extra busy on Tuesday, but my saving grace is I only have to work 2 days this week - Thursday and Friday off!! Whoo Hoo!! I know I should be thrilled to be having another birthday because the alternative is not good at all, but 50?!?! Geez.....how the hell did this happen? 30 was hard, 40 a piece of cake, 50?? a few martinis will be necessary!! Take care everyone! Have a great week. Love you. Becky

Great Weekend!













It was so nice to see everyone at Nate and Anna's wedding on Sat - What fun we had! The Bride and Groom looked so happy and a great time was had by all! It's great when the families get together for a fun occasion for a change! The dance floor was filled with so many great moments, its hard to pick a favorite, but here are a few of mine. Cute Colin dancing up a storm (not just "watching the folks dance!); Jenn, Mandy, and Dad dancing together; screaming the extra lyrics to Mony, Mony (always a favorite!!); and last but not least, the Full Moon compliments of my craziest cousin but the crowd favorite Scott!! I don't think I've had so much fun for a long time!


The weather was so much nicer too - not perfect cause the wind was kinda cold both days, but a marked improvement over the weekend before! It was a beautiful sunrise on Munson Lake Sat and Sunday morning! That is my favorite time of day at the house. I love it. After a little recovery time and breakfast at the 611 Pit - everyone left for home and I stayed awhile and read and slept a little. Greg (poor guy) had to go home and work - actually got started in the field and is going strong planting. Keep your fingers crossed for no rain for about 2 weeks! That would be wonderful! Well, everyone have a great week and for all the mothers I won't see, but love none the less, Have a wonderful Mothers Day on Sunday! Becky
