cottage is on a lake

I am off to the cottage for a week with ALL nine adult kids, in-laws and baby grandchildren. Two hours further north into the Canadian Shield, without any  internet reception.

So it is old-fashioned books, swimming, campfires,  fishing scrabble, delicious meals and unending hours of crocheting to finish a cotton bed cover for my daughter’s wedding in August.

I will be back Saturday evening, July 27th.

  4. Melanie these are the best kind of holidays ones spent laughing it up with family and especially catching a glimpse of ever growing grandchildren. I to am off for a week with family. My whole family will be in the one place for my sisters 50th a rare thing as we live all over the state of NSW in Australia so I am excited for you. The baby is so gorgeous I love that photo.
