Lake Calhoun

On Sunday we went to Lake Calhoun.  I was trying to find a fun summer family activity to do and after doing some research, I found a canoe rental place on Lake Calhoun.  We rented a canoe and spent an hour navigating around the chain of lakes.  Katie and Allie started the trip sitting on the floor of the canoe but after 5 minutes they wanted to sit closer to us.  Katie sat by me and helped me paddle and Allie helped Todd paddle.  An hour was the perfect amount of time to spend in a canoe with 2 four year olds.  We saw a lot of wildlife including  a mama deer and her 2 fawns.  After our canoe ride we had a picnic lunch and found a playground to play on.  What a fun way to spend a hot summer day!
