Dan and I decided to leave for Dave and Mary Jo's cabin at Lake Gogebic in U.P Michigan on Monday for however long the kids would last. I was thinking it would be 3 days but we ended up coming home Saturday! It was the first time Anya and Finn had been up there and was actually the first time for me in almost 3 years! Anya and Finn did really well and had a ton of fun!
Anya had fun running around the yard, watching Aebo swim, and swinging in the hammock with Daddy.
Anya also loved taking "hikes in the forest". She really did not like the mosquitos and would tell Dan to say "Bugs. This is my daughter. Leave her alone. Go back into the forest by yourself. Don't bite her anymore!"
We also took a couple trips to Lake Superior where Anya and Mary Jo collected rocks and Dan collected drift wood. We went to Presque Isle and hiked to a couple different waterfalls and then out to Lake Superior where Dan and Anya had fun skipping rocks.
After a fun filled day, Anya and Finn were pretty messy, so we decided to give them their first "Sauna" really just a bath in the warm sauna in a red storage tub! Anya said "I took my first Sauna and it was great!"
Here a just some cute bedtime pictures...

Craft time: I made a birch bark bead necklace. You take strips of birch bark, cut them in to long triangles, put on some glue and roll them up into beads. String them onto some leather and there you have it! It turned out pretty cool, I think I'm going to have to make some more.
