We had such a lovely long weekend!!! Daddy has been traveling a lot, so we all took advantage of him being home! Sunday we went on a wild goose chase that WAS successful, to find a lake to take Emma fishing. We ended up, as planned, at Spring Lake near Prior Lake. They have a long new dock, with no railings so I was a nervous wreck with no life jacket on Emma! We lasted about an hour and a half, as it was Emma's nap time when we arrived there.
Yesterday evening we went to my Mom and Denny's for dinner, and Emma enjoyed every second she had playing in the back yard. As the weather was cold enough that I wore a scarf, sweatshirt and jeans on the deck for dinner, we stayed in doors for our key lime pie. Elliott and Emma got to drawing, and Emma wrote "To Grandma From Emma" all by herself, while Elliott told her what letter came next!!! So, proud Mama had to put a picture of it up here:)
We might be successful if we started a Patterson family circus:)
Today, since the weather had shifted 180 degrees and the weather was muggy and 84 (!!!!) we took Emma for a picnic and fishing. We found a great little group of parks and lakes about 10 minutes from our house that we will take full advantage of this summer. The fish were no more than 5 inches long, but Emma didn't care! 
Happy Memorial Day to all.... in honor of all who serve our country!
