Becker's 2009

We just got back from our yearly vacation with the Peterson's at Becker's Resort. In prior years it's the hottest week of the year, this year was quite different.. We had okay weather on Sunday and Monday, meaning low 70's. We brought Cooper to the pool on Monday and he loved it. It still amazes me how fearless he is. We put a life jacket on him and he was jumping into the pool without even holding our hands. He didn't mind his face getting wet and wanted to stay in there even after his teeth started chattering.



We woke up on Tuesday to cold gloomy weather. I called my mom to see how things were at home. Mom said Grandma Gladys wasn't doing so good. So I talked my wonderful husband into taking a day trip and going to visit grandma. We left Becker's and started the three hour drive to Hallock. It was raining and windy over half of the way up there. Once we got there it was so great to see Grandma! She was doing much better and we were able to have a good visit with her. I was able to snap this picture of Cooper giving Grandma a kiss, really sweet. We ended up staying for about three hours before heading back to Becker's. We also hit horrible weather on the way back, thankfully we made it back safely about 11 hours later.

For the rest of the week we didn't see the sun again, but that didn't stop us from having a great time! Cooper had a sleep over at Grandma and Grandpa's cabin on Wednesday night and was able to spend a lot of time with them.








He also found a new favorite person, Tim's girlfriend Annie. Cooper loved her! He followed her around and I am pretty sure he drove her a little crazy.






We were also able to sneak in a little fishing. Anne and I killed the guys in our annual rock bass "tournament" Though I have to admit we had an incredible navigator.







Cooper also had a lot of fun play with Abby and hanging out at the play ground.





We had to leave Becker's early this year because we had a wedding to go to on Saturday. While it cut the week short it was kind of nice to be home for a weekend before heading back to work.
