First Day of School


Claire started school again today. She is officially a 4th grader! Where does the time go??

More Summer Fun!




We have enjoyed a few rainy weekends at the lake this summer. When the kids can't swim, they head out in the boat for some serious fishing expeditions! Claire and Charlie fish for the "big kid" fish with their dad while Greta just tries to keep herself entertained. Needless to say, we have lost a few fishing poles in the lake this summer. I hope the fish are enjoying their new Barbie light up fishing pole! Daddy has even had a few moments where distraction led to a pole on the bottom of the lake. With the sacrifice of some wet clothes, Grandpa's smart thinking and a HUGE fishing lure, Brett's fishing pole was retrieved from the lake! Greta's pole did not again see the light of day but I am sure the fish are enjoying it as much as Greta!

Summer Fun!










Busy, busy, busy; that would be the theme of the Peterson's summer. We have enjoyed many weekends at the lake and Claire has enjoyed bringing her friend Jaiden along for the fun. We have had many campfires, caught lots of fish, tubed. skiied, picked raspberries and 4-wheeled to our hearts desire. Despite many weekends lacking sunshine, we were never bored, always finding a way to have fun! We are so thankful that Grandma and Grandpa Kelm have the "little cabin" next door where the kids can be kids without waking up Grandma and Grandpa!
