A mix of photography, recipes, personal thoughts, faith, and lots of family stuff, but not necessarily in that order.

More Family visit "Hemmers Haven" our cabin at the lake.

 Mid August, 
Following my sister's visit... came more family.
 We love hosting (there's a story behind that)

Some of our favorite people in the whole wide world.
Uncle Wayne and Aunt Jo Anne
They have ALOT of history at this lake and the resort that used to include our cabin!
They honeymooned at "Hawkeye Haven" which we now lovingly refer to as "Hemmer's Haven". 
The cabin they stayed in has been removed but they point to the place it used to be 
as we reminisce on the deck! 
They also vacationed here years ago with their young family and Wayne's parents, 
(ricks grandparents)

They have made the trip to our cabin several times over the last 10 years, from AZ and TX

Boat ride!
We saw the loons and some eagles flying into their nest.
Uncle Wayne is probably telling Rick where to catch the biggest fish :)

We had a nice brunch to celebrate Aunt Jo Anne's birthday. 
Some GOOD friends/family were able to join us
(Judy O. and her SIL Janice) 
Melinda S. (left) was up at her cabin on the lake, 
I was so glad the timing worked out that she could make it.

Love all these people so much
Friends that go Wayyyyyy back  (Judy & Jo Anne)
These 3 are so fun!
The best!
 Cabin visits with Wayne and Jo Anne always feels like such a blessing as they never commit to the next year! The same goes for Judy, we hope she will be here next year as well, and with Judy, comes Janice....It's all good :)
