2021 :: 8/52 :: Tova's 3rd birthday

 wednesday was Al's last day to work from home. trevor had his usual school work and meeting. 

thursday was packing day for the cabin ice fishing trip with matt, jodi and the kids. matt and Al picked up the trailer we rented in the morning and we were all packed up and ready to go once we got the kids from school and jodi's last daycare kid left. it was in birchwood, an hour and 15 minute drive. we ordered pizza once there and enjoyed the large cabin and gorgeous view of the lake until it got dark. 

friday was SUPER windy so we spent most of it inside the cabin. the big kids did play outside for a bit and matt put tip ups up so we checked those occasionally. jodi adn i pulled up 2 good sized northerns (my first northern i've ever caught.) we had a little birthday party for tova and did some puzzle books, made snowmen out of marshmallows, played some games and had cake. we made tacos for supper. 

saturday at the cabin was gorgeous outside!! we spent most of it outside on the lake. we didn't catch much but some rays (sun rays that is.) jodi's parents came to fish for a bit. emily, joe and graham came to fish for most of the day. and jess, brandon, evrett and baby easton stopped by for a bit too. it was a super fun day! we just had leftovers for supper since we'd brought so much food! 

sunday while we were packing up it started to snow. by the time we left/had to be out at 9 am we had gotten over 2 inches. we got a little stuck getting out of the driveway and it was a bit of a stressful drive until we got to chippewa where there was no snow. then it was unpacking, napping for the kids, and relaxing. 

monday was march 1st and Tova's 3rd birthday!! we went to jodi's after school drop off and had a little party. i brought the leftover cake and the snowman making stuff and the kids loved those! tova got lots of presents and she was so good about saying thank you to everyone! mom came down just before school pickup so we had a little birthday celebration with her and when Al got back from work. she had a great birthday!
