Finally connected!

I finally got my blog connected to the clouds that contain our photos (= How FUN is this pile of kids?!?

 

Vandenbergs were so close to us we just had to make the drive out to see them. Karen and I lived together long before we were married (=

Layla is being a real trouper and just having so much fun with whomever we are visiting. She and Bekah were great together!

We are loving the super cool playgrounds in America! Even if we are FREEZING! Layla is way at the top there. Still insisting on wearing dresses.

Ryan insists on very little. He is super easy going and just a happy kid. So helpful! Every time he sees water he yells WAAATEEERRRRR! Happens a lot in MN.

 

Through good old FB realized some friends were staying in a hotel nearby as they were on their own road trip and we had a dip in their pool!

Ahhh, the mall of America. So much entertainment in one place.

 

We have been blessed with a plethora of little girls to play with. Violet was super fun and very conciencious about cleaning up her toys. So cute.

Our old small group from church (minus 2 families). It was very newlyweds at the time. Obviously, we've all moved on!

One of our old haunts....awesome pizza right near Lake Nokomis!
