Surprise Adventure in the Woods!

 Jace and Bella

We went to the gym on Monday morning and then mama was acting kind of suspicious about what we were going to do for the day. She said we might do something fun with our best buddies, but we did see them at the gym. Also, daddy was working on our utility trailer that was loaded with lots of stuff and that is when miss Audra pulled in and we realized we were going on our annual surprise Adventure! We were so excited on the way and as we got closer to Lake of the Woods (one of our favorite camping places), we guessed it destination. We didn't camp, instead we stayed in a cute little cabin. We got there a little early for checking into the cabin, so we got some toys and a picnic lunch and headed for the beach! We stayed 2 nights and 3 days and we had a great time. We fished, we went on our kayaks, we played horse shoes, ladder golf, charades and went on some nature walks too. After breakfast, the first morning, we went for a walk by the lake. Floating in the water by a log, I (Jace) found a bottle with a map in it. We thought it might be a treasure map, so we went back to the cabin to get a map of the lake and headed for the X on the treasure map. We had to go deep in some bushes, but sure enough, we found a treasure box that was full of treasure, shark teeth and arrow heads. It was so exciting, and we split all the treasure between the 5 of us kids. It was more exciting than we ever could have imagined our adventure at the lake.
