New Dress and Boundary Waters Adventures

I just love this dress from my Mom that Svea was wearing this past Sunday.
Grandma came to visit at the end of Dan and Dean's Boundary Waters Trip and then stayed through the weekend.
Speaking of Boundary Waters....I am so happy that they made it back "SAFELY"  from their trip.  They actually had quite a scary adventure that involved overturning a canoe and treading water in an icy lake for over 2 1/2 hours in a crazy thunderstorm with not just waves, but swells.  It was so bad that it was a surprise they didn't capsize earlier, but they got stuck in it and needed to get back home.  Some of the other men on the trip and two younger boys helped pull them to safety.  I'm so glad I didn't hear about it until after they arrived back home.  God was with them that day and we are so thankful!
