We headed up to Ely, Minnesota one last time with both sets of parents. My parents had been there 3 years ago so this time, they kind of knew what they were getting into! We spent the days: playing in the sand; playing in the water; floating out to Blueberry Island; grilling and eating anything in sight!; skiing; sauna-ing; drinking; sleeping; boating; fishing and shopping in town! It was great – and it was great to have extra hands on deck with the boys! The boys did amazing in the 7 hour car ride – and at the lake! We also celebrated Maddox’s 3rd birthday (again) with blueberry and apple pies and Aunt Paula’s homemade ice cream!
It’s so fun knowing that my kids are going to grow up with these amazing memories of their time spent “at the lake.” We are so grateful we have Ely (but wish it was closer….approximately 6 hours closer….)! Now, I’m officially ready for fall!
