Mount Rushmore...





Wouldn't you know that I would forget to post the pictures that we took at Mount Rushmore. We literally were there for only a few minutes. We drove there took the photos and got back in the van and headed for home. Ada was not having family time and did not want to be in our family photo so she is standing off to the side--at least she is in the photo, right? I have only seen Mount Rushmore a couple of times but each time I see it, it never fails to amaze me and leave me speechless.

So Big!


Read to Us Daddy...

All three of our kids have a love for books. They each love picking out a book and listening to us read the story. Gunnar shows that you are never to young to enjoy a good book.

Grilling with Daddy...

Benjamin and Ada enjoy sitting in their little chairs watching Daddy grill. They love being outside and love spending time with their daddy. They also have Dave's love for chips!

Such a Smile...

My little honey is so happy go lucky and loves to smile!

Storybook Island...







We met up with Dave's cousin and her little girl, his aunt, and Dave's folks at Storybook Island. The kids had a great time running around climbing on everything. It was not very often that all three kids would be in the same place at the same time so those pictures were far and few between. The kids loved pretending to be royalty. Benjamin was excited to meet Ariel from the Little Mermaid. We could have spent more time there but between our schedule and the impending rain we cut our visit there short.

Reptile Gardens...
















We took some time and went to Reptile Gardens. The kids loved it! Benjamin loves crocodiles and was excited to watch the alligator/crocodile show not one time but two. He and Ada even got up the nerve to touch a baby croc. The kids had a great time looking at the reptiles and watching all of the shows. They would just sit there wide eyed and mesmerized. Gunnar would even watch the reptiles and the birds for a while. Gunnar was a great baby on our trip. He is very carefree and easy going which makes it extremely wonderful for us.
