Canoeing at Chain O' Lakes on Memorial Day









We decided to go canoeing today with the kids. Chris had heard about a place not too far a way from home that had great canoeing. The park was called Chain O' Lakes. There are 7 different lakes connected by channels. We canoed to 4 of the seven. We originally thought that it would be fun to do it by paddle boat. Ha, Ha. Our legs were on fire before we even made it out of the first lake. So, needless to say we traded our paddle boat in for a canoe. It proved to be an excellent decision. The kids both took turns paddling and did a great job. We saw lots of wildlife including turtles, fish, ducks wit babies, dragon flies, a blue heron, birds and tons of lilly pads.

After that adventure it is time for a nap! Happy Memorial Day!

Fort Wayne randomness






It has been a while since I have posted so I thought that I would post some random pictures of different things that we have been doing here in Fort Wayne.

Louisville



Well we decided to make a trip to Louisville for Mother's Day weekend to suprise my mom. Mission accomplished! She had no idea that we were coming and she was presently suprised to tears. Which, I do not see very often. We had a fun time staying with Chris' grandma and visiting with friends. The weather was beautiful and we enjoyed the warmth.
