our weekend up north

as you might have been able to tell from our text-less last two posts, we spent the weekend at bill and kathie's place in northern wisconsin. to break up the drive, we spent a night at will and sandy's. we hadn't seen anders in person since christmas and he is still a cutie and a charmer as i remembered, but bigger and much more mobile. you can see the cousin resemblance in the post below (rob and will have some crazy-strong genes, i think). our time in hayward was really relaxing--boating, snacking, reading, napping, hot tubbing, card playing, hummingbird watching, sandbox digging, and chatting. we had pretty perfect weather--breezy, sunny, and warmish. we also were able to celebrate the first few waking hours of bill's birthday on sunday before heading back to iowa city (via osseo, WI and the original norske nook!). these are photos from our saturday morning cruise around the lake. eleanor enjoyed the sights, but also spent a good deal of time playing with some fishing weights and the little nail clipper attached to the boat key. did i tell you about that yellow hat, or what? if we ever print up all of our digital photos and they become disorganized, this summer's will be easy to distinguish--i'll just look for the flower hat.
