Fun in Holstein

We all had fun in Holstein Iowa last weekend.  The kids got to go for walks, play at the park and eat ice cream.  Rachel even got to hold Max's hand.  Those two are so cute!  Thanks to Angie and Grant along with Jake and Max for showing us a good time.

Meeting New Babies

 Earlier this month we got to meet little London.  She was born in January.  There she is sitting on Natalie's lap. What a doll!

 And we got to meet Everett a few days after he was born on April 4.  Natalie and Rachel loved holding him, in fact, Rachel didn't want to put him down :)



Happy Easter

Austin/Owatonna Weekend

My family left me for the weekend to travel to Austin, MN to visit the Spam museum.  Then they went to Owatonna to stay at a water park hotel.  Uncle Sam, Auntie Em, and cousin Delia also came with.

 The girls really enjoyed all the displays.

Everyone was all tired out after swimming and going down the water slides.  Delia, Sam and Natalie watched Peter Pan.
