Lake Days
This past weekend, Daisy went on her first Ferry ride, first visit at Granny and Grampa's and first parade at Lake Day's!
It was a lot of fun, and great to get away for a few days. We hadn't been to Mom and Dad's since like September (I think?!?). Ben was already there so we were just traveling with Daisy and the dogs, made awesome time and caught the 11am ferry, almost driving right on. Makes life with a 10 week old baby that much easier!
Daisy was entered into the Baby of the Lake contest, but of course the ONE time she decides to get into a deep sleep during the day, it was then! I couldn't wake her, and those big blues didn't make an appearance so she didn't win.. LOL.. which totally doesn't matter. I hope they do it better next year though, as they only had 2 age groups — 0 to 12 months, and 12 to 24 months. That is a HUGE age difference! So the baby that won in Daisy's group was much older, standing, smiling and laughing. She was cute though :)
We had a nice get together with other family members, too. Uncle Travis came for dinner on Friday, and to meet Daisy. On Saturday Dad made a yummy roast on the bbq, Mom made some delicious salads.. mmm! Mike's Nana & Grampa came, as well as his Granny and two sets of Aunts and Uncles — and throw in a Chihuahua, a Lhasa Apso (named Daisy!) and a Multi-poo, it was crazy there. Ben doesn't do well with crowds, kind of loses it after a while, so we were all happy when bedtime came!
All in all it was a great trip, both there and back. If I could guarantee a repeat of the kids behaving as well as they did, dogs being great and scoring with the Ferry's, then that would be awesome!

Happy girl!!

It was getting loud (fire truck coming!) and Ben wasn't so sure about it.
Hold onto Daddy!
