Black Hills

We headed to the Black Hills last weekend to camp with some Intervarsity friends from college. Ethan had also learned about Mt. Rushmore at school and really wanted to go and what is a trip to the Black Hills without it. It was a little warm but we enjoyed our time. It was Levi's first camping trip and he did very well. It was great to catch up with friends and enjoy being in the Hills that we love so much and miss.

Rochester

We headed to Rochester for a week over the 4th of July. It was great to all be home and enjoy a week together. The weather was in the high 90's so the new pool got many hours of use. Ethan and Micah were little fish and really enjoyed it. Levi even got a little pool time in. We also got to meet our nephew and cousin, Aidan.

 Cousins...Aidan and Levi

 We braved the heat and went to the zoo.

Levi loved the zoo!
