Quick Up date

Here are a few recent pictures of Hailey. She is growing so fast and is so much fun. Her new favorite thing to do is read books. She loves to be held and read to. Dan was able to keep her attention by reading to her for 30 min. She loves it. And as most of you know, ever since she was born she has had the most delicate hands. She is always holding her hands so gently and looks like she is posing. I got this picture of her while she was sitting on daddy's lap. She is also loving baths now that she can sit by herself. She splashes like crazy and just giggles.

FALL BREAK...NO STUDYING ALLOWED!!!!

Over Dans fall break, we took a little vacation about 2 hours away and went to Wisconsin Dells for the weekend. They are known for their indoor water parks. The resort we went to was called Kalahari. It had an indoor water park and an indoor amusement park. You can go to kalahariresorts.com to learn more about the resort. It was huge We went with Matt, Amie, Kaylee, and Josh. It was so much fun. The best part was that Dan didn't do any studying!!! It was so nice for him to take a break. We are excited to go back again some day! Here are a few fun pictures.

Hailey loves the water!!

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.

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!!
