Our Big Vacation!


We're back!
After 8 days and 5 states we have arrived home from our big summer vacation. We started our trip off in the Wisconsin Dells. We enjoyed 3 fabulous days of sun, trains, and water parks.


Here is the indoor portion of the water park at the Chula Vista Resort. The kids enjoyed going between the inside and the outside. We were glad to have everything on site at our resort.


Samuel takes a turn on the lazy river (for kids). This became a favorite area and we spent a lot of our day here.



Where are we now? We are in Illinois. We traveled to Rockford to attend my cousin's wedding reception. We got to stay/see lots of family. It was a fun, but busy 3 days.


The weather was beautiful for this outdoor reception on the Rock River. A bit hot and humid, but no rain.


Amelia enjoys some treats from the desert table. Thanks Borseth's and Vesta's for a great weekend.


Happy 4th of July!
We then headed to see Nonnie (David's grandma) in Quincy Illinois on the banks of the Mississippi. We enjoyed a wonderful 4th of July fireworks show and days of fun with Nonnie.


More views of the Mississippi river the next day.


Enjoying some yummy chocolate pie.
Nonnie had not seen the kids in about a year so it was a treat for her to catch up with them.
She loved introducing us to her many friends.
What a fun, full trip.
