I can't believe our little girl (take "little" lightly... she weighs a whopping 52 lbs. as of today) is already halfway to being a year old (we'll never be able to forget her birthday either, because she was born on New Years Eve 2010). To celebrate it, while we were up at Luke's family cabin in Crosslake, we stopped at our favorite ice cream shop and got Lucy her own ice cream treat! She waited so patiently while I snapped a few pics of her with her birthday surprise ("Wait" is a command that she's really good at responding to, especially when it comes to food).

Lucy has taken a liking for the cabin. She especially loves the fact that she's off leash for most of the time there, and that she gets to spend time annoying her cousin Bella. This past weekend was a huge improvement from Memorial Day weekend, where we couldn't take our eyes off of her for even a second before starting to run off. Turns out, Lucy loves the water after all! While she doesn't quite care for swimming, she loves to run in to where the water is deep enough to hit her chest, but not deep enough that she has to swim (though we know she can swim, since Luke and I took her out into the deeper part so that she had to swim back to shore). Playing ball in the shallows and just wading in became her favorite part of going up to the cabin!

We were sad to have to leave the cabin and head back to reality, but we're anxiously looking forward to the next trip up to Crosslake, and then excited to be able to take Lucy up to my family's cabin in Grand Marais in the fall.
