We went to Orr, Mn for vacation the first week of August. We stayed at the Aspen resort on beautiful Pelican Lake. We had awesome weather, minus a few days of rain.
Here we are getting our picture taken with Billy the Blue Gill.
Heidi did pretty well with her life jacket, considering it was the first time she had it on. Those things are pretty snug.
Swimming in the pool and loving it!!! She had so much fun swimming. We don't have easy access to a pool at home, so we took advantage of the pool at the lodge almost everyday.
With some help from Grandma, she would jump to mommy's arms off the side of the pool.
We got her this neat floaty raft. It's for little ones to help make the intro to water easy. But most the time she didn't use it, she liked hanging on to mommy and daddy much better. She even went under water, briefly, and seemed OK with it.
The resort ducks are pretty brave. They came right over to our deck, seeing that we were throwing them bread to eat and all. I think that made it was easier for them to trust us. Heidi loved to watch them eat.
Heidi loved chasing the ducks. By day 2 of our trip, she was quaking right along with them.
Tuesday was "Frost fish cookies at the Lodge". So we went and had a good time. Heidi didn't eat her cookie, daddy did. She was having too much fun tickling the girl at the next table.
One of Heidi's new words or phrases is "Wee wee". Which to her means, swinging!! This was an activity Heidi did A LOT on vacation. Swing, swing, swing!!
Anything goes on vacation right? Eating out on the deck.....why not!! She thought that was the coolest. Heck, it was easier to clean up. She had fun watching everything go on outside while chomping away on chili mac!
