Chelsea Langhans

The early morning of August 22nd our dear friend Chelsea Langhans was tragically killed in a head on car crash on hwy 12 near Maple Plain. Shortly after we had the honor of celebrating her life with quite a few friends and family and hear some wonderful memories of how she touched their lives. We walked across the Stone Arch Bridge to honor her which was one of her favorite places to run! She had nearly 1000 friends on Facebook and she knew them all! We will miss her but will try to strive to be more like her by loving and welcoming to all we meet!  There is a link below to a go fund me page has been set up to help with some expenses and to pay for a bench in her honor near the Stone Arch Bridge. She was only 25 and taken way too soon and had so much life left to live.    

This is me with Chelsea and her sister Liz at our Power Squadron change of watch in February. Her Mom Tina was our past commander and so we joked that her daughters where the princesses.

I can't believe Summer is OVER...here are some of my favorites from the end!

My Boys are NUTS!  LOVE THEM!  We had a great Summer with a Twins game and spending time on the boat!





























Labor Day Weekend we did a shrimp boil out at the sandy side(It happened to be my birthday!).  We had delicious food boiled in a pot in the sand.  This year it was warm enough for me to get into the water...last year Eric had to walk the food to me on the boat.  The boys made 3 pans of brownies that we shared with everyone!


Paddle Board doubling as a floating table.

The raft we were part of on Labor Day Weekend.  We slept at anchor with about 10 boats Saturday night and it was 85 degrees in the cabin and it started raining at 4:30 in the morning.  We had a lot of fun!



Our friend Kevin got a Zodiac, so he let Eric take the kids out for a ride.

Evan found a really BIG bull frog!

Last weekend before school!

Nina and Evan releasing the frog back to nature.  Nina said We will remember him forever! 


$5.00 burgers at Lord Fletcher's on the Wharf!  LOVE!

Sometimes you have to do silly pictures to get nice ones!




Sleeping peaceful boys the night before school started!
