Memorial Day Weekend

We had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend! On Saturday we went to the Lake front for a Kite festival. It was so much fun. The weather we perfect. There were a lot of people but it was on a huge grassy area that it didnt seem that crowded. Everyone was there flying their kites. But the main act of entertainment was the professional kite fliers. They were AMAZING. I never knew you could do that many things with a kite. The acts were all set to music. They would do the most incredible things with these kites and they would never get tangled up. They also had quiet a few larger kites just flying in the air. The biggest on there was a large octopus that was 140 feet long. It was HUGE. Here are a few pictures.

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!!
