Mama & Papa's - the New Weekend Retreat

View from the porch of some of the trees Chris and my Dad have cleared out. They now have a better view of the lake.

One of my parent's "neighbors", a friendly snapping turtle that is looking to bury her eggs on my parent's yard.

My parents have moved out of our basement and are now in their BEAUTIFUL new home in Breezy Point, MN. Ben refers to it as "Papa's House" implying that Papa lives there, but Mama still lives with him. He has definitely formed a very strong bond with his Mama (that's what Ben calls Grandma)! We have spent a few weekends at the new place and LOVE it. Chris has been clearing dead trees and brush with my dad and Bella spends all day wandering the woods. She is one tired puppy by Sunday! I have been collecting some toys for the boys to keep there and they even have thier own room. We are so blessed to have my parents back in MN and close enough to visit as much as we want. I hope someday the boys will be able to look back and cherish all the wonderful memories that they will have of spending time with Mama and Papa.
