Fourth of July

We took a trip up north to Minnesota for the July 4th weekend. First off, a Twins/Yankees game on July 3rd for baseball and fireworks. Next up, what better way to celebrate the fourth than a day at the Mall of America. Adventures at the aquarium and amusement park plus shopping, of course. The kids loved the rides and time with grandma and grandpa. Then, we visited Minnehaha Park with its beautiful waterfalls. A wonderful holiday weekend with family!

Fun with Cousins and Camping

After Colorado we headed to western Nebraska for relaxing and camping on the lake. The kids had a great time playing with their cousins and enjoying the sand and water. Thunderstorms put a wrench in the fun, but we rode them out in the car, and then gathered around the campfire for drinks and s'mores. :)

Colorado

Great family vacation in Colorado with a Brewers/Rockies game and visits to the Denver Botanic Gardens and Denver Zoo. We also made a trip down to Colorado Springs to the Garden of the Gods and the kids' favorite - the North Pole - with fun rides and visit to Santa.

Having more fun in June exploring our favorite spots in Omaha plus swimming lessons - both kids are little fishes!
