Photos show the group relaxing by Twain's lakefront cottage and Thiébaud, 39, jet skiing, horsing around with the kids – including her son Eja, 8, and his young daughter Johanna – and sharing some tender moments with Twain.

"[I'm] managing very well, in fact," writes Twain in a letter to her fan club on her Web site. "I'm enjoying my child, friends and family like I haven't in years, and it's great . . . I've been experiencing and seeing new things every day, living life with a different and more optimistic attitude."

The singer's last public appearances included her triumphant return to the CMA Awards in November and a Manhattan shopping spree and a fun-filled Florida vacation in December with Thiebaud's ex-husband, Frédéric Thiébaud, 39.
