Wisconsin, part two

We made another trek to Three Lakes! These girls are seasoned travelers now! On the airplane Larkin kept telling us that she wants to fly all by herself someday (on a blue plane, not a white one), that she won't cry, and will put on the seatbelt all by herself!

Once we arrived the girls were right at home...no warm up time needed. We spent a lot of the week outdoors enjoying the great weather. Top of the list was berry picking! Both girls picked (and ate) a ton of raspberries. Willa kept saying, "Look! Berries! Me pick!" Larkin buried herself deep in the berry bushes and sang songs as she picked for almost an hour straight!


"Underdogs" with Uncle Ryan! (Underdog is where you push them up really high and then run under the swing. These two can not get on a swing now without immediately yelling UNDERDOG!) Larkin says that Uncle Ryan gives the best underdogs!

Cornfight with Great Gramma Ruth. Every night the girls would get out the corn to feed the deer, and one afternoon they got a little crazy with the bag!


This is a lake we went fishing and boating on a few times. The grass you see here is wild rice, and there is a narrow path of open water that you have to follow in the lake.

They both like to yell, "Faster! Faster!" on boat rides.

Grandpa- piggyback ride to the lake.

Auntie Lisa bought the girls some really cute dresses. Larkin is now adamant about choosing what she wears, and she added the clashing pants and shirt to the outfit!

We stopped in and visited Great Gramma Mary and Joel's Aunts and Uncle. Gramma was recovering from hip surgery and had just arrived back home. We were so glad to be able to see her!
