Memories of Grandview Lodge
While we were up North we stopped by Grandview Lodge for dinner and to reminisce about the wonderful times we had there over the years with Grandma Helen. Just being at Grandview brought back so many memories of fantastic times. Grandma was so fun and witty and wonderful. We sure miss her and I wish Oliver had the chance to know her.
More from Breezy Point
Playing on the beach with Grandpapa (aka "Pop")
Oliver loved to ride the train in downtown Nisswa!
We visited the farm of one of Nana's friends and Oliver got to feed the rabbits some delicious carrots.
Trip to Breezy Point
We just returned from a great week up at Breezy Point. It was so nice to get away and spend a whole week of uninterrupted time with Oliver. We had a blast swimming in the pool and at the beach.
Matt was only able to come up for the first half of the week and then had to return to work, so Nana and Pop (Oliver's new name for Grandpapa) joined us for the remainder of the week.
I think Oliver got used to the idea of waking up with a morning swim and his Nana and Pop around. On the last day at the resort he woke up and the first thing he said to me was "Nana, Pop, Pool?"

Dinner at Melanie's
Our good friend Melanie has opened her house for the month of August to anyone wanting to come for dinner any night of the week. She is blogging about it at www.opendinnertable.blogspot.com We went for dinner tonight and had a lovely time. Melanie made pasta from scratch with a vegetable sauce fresh from her garden and delicious bruschetta with home grown tomatoes. Oliver had a great time running around the yard and chatting with the backyard chickens.
Beach Baby
Oliver is loving the beach this summer. This is from a beautiful July day spent at Lake Riley with Nana and Grandpapa.
