What's New!

Yep, having another person to write about has set our blog back WAAAAY farther than we wanted it to! Instead of trying to go back and fill in all of the blanks right away we've decided to start where we are right now and then back fill as we have time...

So, read about what we're up to now and then check below for links to past months that we've updated :-)

Camping: Day 1

Today we packed up all of camping things and headed to northern Wisconsin for the family's first camping trip of the season. We went to Two Lakes Campground on Lake Owen/Bass Lake in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. The campground was beautiful - all of the campsites were right lakeside and covered with big beautiful trees.

Grandma Judy and Dave came with us -
it was both Dave's AND Sam's first time camping :-)

Once we got there we set up camp...


Sam loved watching all of the action
!


Madeline was hungry so she ate her peanut butter sandwich while we got everything situated.


The reason we chose this area to camp is because Aunt Melanie is the camp director at Lake Owen Gymnastics Camp and wanted us to come and visit. After we got everything set up we drove to her camp and watched all of the gymnasts show off all of the new skills they had learned that week. Madeline loved all of the balance beams and trampolines - I think we have to get her signed up for a gymnastics class soon!


Later that evening Melanie and Christianne came to stay with us. We cooked some brats and pepperoni pizzas in our sandwich makers... Mmmmmm. We hope to get some biking in tomorrow!

Watch our new house being built!
