Murphy's Landing, in Shakopee–a living history museum with buildings
spanning a period from the 1840s through 1890.

We bought a little backyard swimming
pool for Lucy. Here she and Joana enjoy some time in the pool on an
exceptionally hot day. Lucy absolutely loved the water.

Hey,
there's Mom's leg! |
 |
| Found a
little toy to play with |
 |
Concentrating on the toy |
 |
| Wondering
if the water is indeed bluer on the other side of Mom's leg |
 |
Sign of
intense concentration–the tongue comes out |
 |
| Beautiful
blue eyes |

Giggling |

giggled like mad when Mom dragged her through the water |

Wheeee |
