My First Parade

Amika's first parade was the Pelican Rapids Turkey Days Parade. WHOHOOO! I've been told by several people however, that the Dilworth Loco Days Parade is much better. I'm going to wait and see.
We went to the parade with our friends from Colorado

This is my west coast cool!!

Thanks Uncle Marty and Aunt Cheryl

one HAIL of a storm

We were awoken to a monstrous pitter patter on the roof. The hail turned both our pontoon lights on and the neighbors. WOW! Check out the size of that frozen rain. Insurance people will be busy. Good thing Dad wasn't going to finish the roof until tomorrow from the last storm.

A True Beach Princess

NOW this is an ancient dress!

This was a dress worn by myself and my sister. Also, notice the ring on Amika's finger. That belonged to ME! My mother brought it for Amika's baptism.

First Dip in the Big "pool"

Grandpa introduced Amika to the lake water. She'll be kneeboarding in no time.

AH Lake Livin'

More Pictures from Baptism

Amika's Baptism

It was a perfect Sunday for Amika. We had so many people celebrating and even some special guests all the way from Montana. We could not have asked for a better day!!

Sometimes I just come across pictures that need to be enjoyed because the young children in the pictures are so cute.

The Forbes come to Visit

Three children under the age of 4 and two teenagers makes for fun and excitement. Even in June we did manage to squeeze in a couple hours of sunshine! Nic, Gus, Seth(even drove the boat a couple times), and Lilly.

A visit to Glenwood

We popped into visit our good friends the Stewart's. We can't wait until they come with their kids to visit at the lake

Graduation Day for Tiffany

All the Skalsky's were in Sauk Centre to celebrate Tiffany's graduation and to send her off to the Navy. It was also the first time in a long time that all of Larry and Gloria's grandchildren were all together. WHOHOOO!
