On Wednesday afternoon, Grandma and Kelly came to the cottage. Max, who had been thinking about this meeting for weeks, decided it was best to greet Kelly with a Silly String surprise! Little did he know that Kelly had her own Silly String for the battle.

| Squirting each other! |
That afternoon, Max and Paul went out on the paddle boat for the first try at "real" fishing. Success!
 |
| First fish on his new pole! |
Later in the afternoon, Max had another greeting surprise for Aunt Kelly. We made some of the Mexican Confetti eggs, and Max exploded them on Kelly's head.
 |
| Hey, little fella, what's in your hand? |
 |
| Boom goes the egg! |
 |
| He had some fun. :-) Thanks to Kel for being a good sport! |
Thursday, we headed down south of Minocqua to Blue Lake. Grandpa Joe's cousin, Janine, has a place on that lake. In fact, most of her in-laws and family has places around Blue Lake. It's kind of like a cool compound. We enjoyed our visit to Janine and Aunt Marie (Joe's mom's sister). Lovely time!

| Want a side of eggs with that ham? |

Back at White Sand Lake later in the afternoon, Max got to shoot off some quiet fireworks that Kel and I got in Flambeau.
 |
| Blue smoke bombs. |
 |
| Smokey smoker. |
 |
| Got Dad with the champagne bottle poppers! Thumbs up! |
 |
| Poor Grandma! |
 |
The little boat smoked and sparked and rode across the board.
But the best part was when the little flag popped at the end. Next year, I will take a video. :-) |
 |
| Sparklers! |
Ending lake time Thursday with a paddle boat ride!
 |
| Nice pic of Paul, Max, and Kelly. |
A few more pics to come!
