3 kids

At the beach, no one was interested in having a photo. They were more interested in throwing more rocks in the water. I will spare the hours of video I took at their request: " please mom! Just one more video of me throwing this rock!"

Lighthouse views, again

I don't think I could ever get tired of this view. At this point, I asked John if we could just move here. So beautiful!

The lighthouse views

The views! The views I tell you were amazing. Even though they required going down 300+ steps to see all the views, it was worth it! Even though we had to go back UP the steps while carrying a tired Gemma, it was worth it!

Also, Amelia thought it was funny to hold a lighthouse in her hand.

Duluth day 1: Split rock lighthouse

We ate a picnic lunch in the car and then headed out to stop #2- Split Rock lighthouse. This is another stop my family made on our family vacation many years ago and I don't remember anything about it. But, it was just down the road from gooseberry falls, so we went to check it out.

We took a little guided tour and saw some spectacular views. The kids enjoyed going up in the lighthouse - it was pretty interesting even though the steps on the way down were a little steep for this mama's liking!

Add some grown ups and it gets more difficult!

Still some funny faces
