First trip to the Zoo

A couple weeks ago we had a fun day at the zoo. We went with Amie, Kaylee and Josh. The Milwaukee zoo in amazing. I have never seen a zoo like it. It is huge and not to mention, full of animals. There are all kinds of animals. They even have animals i have never seen in person before. Out of all the strange animals we saw, i would say the hyenas were the strangest. They are very interesting animals. Im glad we got to take a trip to the zoo before it got too cold. Thanks Amie, Kaylee and Josh for a fun day!!

6 Months Old

Hailey turned 6 months old this week. I cant believe how fast time is going. She had a very successful doctors appointment. She is as healthy as can be and is a good size. She is in the 75% for length and only the 50% for weight. She is still tall and skinny but very healthy. Here are some pictures to show you how much she has grown.

Dan has been studying like crazy. He has had 7 tests in the last 5 school days. He works so hard and his test scores prove it!

This is Dan's favorite thing to do during his breaks.

WE MADE IT!!!

We have arrived in Wisconsin. We got here on the 14th of August and are just trying to get settled. We are still in boxes but slowly making progress unpacking. The trip is about 1400 miles and we drove it in 3 days. Hailey was a trooper. There were times she had enough of her car seat and wanted to get out. I dont blame her, I wanted to get out too!! Once we arrived we arrived it was so fun to see Matt, Amie, Kaylee, and Josh. It was hard to leave family behind but was a lot easier knowing we had family waiting for us. We are excited for Hailey to have cousins to play with.

What a great way to end the summer!!!!

We cant believe the summer is pretty much over. It went by so fast! But we had a lot of fun. This past week we had a Family Reunion and also a trip to Lake Powell. There is no better way to end a summer. We are already looking forward to next summer.

Nothing more refreshing!!!

Over the 4th of July weekend we went up to our cabin in Island Park with my family. It is beautiful up there. We had fun riding on the boat, playing around on wave runners and just hanging out with the family!!! On saturday there was a boat parade. People decorated their boats and drove them around the lake. Later that night there was a beautiful firework show above the lake. It was so pretty how they reflected off the lake. We had such a fun trip!!
