We're Back!

We're Back from vacation and we managed to make it to the end again this year. It's a feat I challenge each and every one of you to attempt. It's not for the meek and mild or those with weak constitutions. It's a marathon not a sprint as we often say and we train as often as possible for this week. We started off with Deep fry night which consists of deep frying anything you can think of and I do mean anything! It was a great start. Then it was on to potato night. We baked massive potatoes and topped them with some of the best things you can imagine. While the potatoes were baking we participated in a drink taste test contest. Each family brought a mixed drink and all the adults sampled said drinks and had to guess what the drink was. (we had multiple choice answer sheets) Some of the drinks we're The Fat frog, Lemonade, Elmer Fudpucker, Scooby Snack, BBC's, Thirst quencher & Fishouse punch those are the only ones I can remember. If you got the most correct you won the coveted liquor pig to keep on your deck till next year when we have a new game (congrats Berdine on your win). We also had Christmas that night where we opened presents and ran around like idiots grabbing other peoples gifts and trying to hide the ones we wanted to keep. Again it was a great night and fun was had by all. Wednesday brought appetizer night and my favorite night. That is some of the best food you can imagine. During the day we spent time on the beach and in the water it was an absolutely beautiful week. We couldn't have asked for better weather. We even tubed the Ottertail River under sunny skies.
