We're spending this weekend in Grand Marais with Emily's parents. They have this really cozy room upstairs for us to stay in. This morning we woke up at 7:00 to feed the boy, then went back to bed until 10:00...Glorious! We then had family cuddle time (see above picture).
We were praying before we left home that we would get a chance to rest and rekindle as a family, as well as see God through the beauty of his creation. The lake is so beautiful this time of year. When I was on my morning walk, there were slabs of ice drifting into the shore and piling up because of the strong current. At one point the cracking sounds stopped abruptly, and I noticed that an entire slab started sliding over top another slab. It was very incredible to watch...and cold.
Emily and I got to go for a brief hike, but were able to use our snowshoes which we were happy about. We saw a herd of dear in some of the highlands, and signs of numerous other game in the area. The sun was out all day, and the weather was very mild. We're hoping it stays the same for tomorrow as we're planning to trek up the Kadunce river.
Renee and Garry are such sweet people. They are helping us to relax, cooking for us, and watching Corban so Emily and I can go out together. We're extremely blessed to have such loving parents. We thank God for them!
