Leech Lake






We flew to Minneapolis on Saturday September 25th for our annual Diede get together at Leech Lake. In a repeat of last years flight we were delayed once on board so our 2 1/2 hour flight turned into 4 hours. Brea did well but Travis and I constantly kept her occupied with books, toys, DVD's and snacks. She slept the final hour of the flight and woke up right before we touched down. Her ears bothered her a little on takeoff and landing but not enough for her to cry which was a relief. Our doctor recommended taking benadryl just in case but thankfully we didn't need to use it.

Once we landed in Minneapolis we rented a car and drove another 2 1/2 hours north to Leech Lake. We were the last ones to arrive at the cabin and were relieved to be done traveling for the day. Grandma and Grandpa bought pizza from Village Square in Walker for dinner so we could all relax and not cook our first night!

The week went fast as usual and we had beautiful weather again. Fishing was so-so but I think everyone enjoyed just being out on the lake. Brea, who has been locked in the house all summer LOVED begin outside. Grandma took her out the most so whenever Brea saw her she always said bye bye and ran to the door. She had a blast playing in the sand, the leaves and at the playground with cousin Mason.
