Abby & Daddy at the lake

We went to the lake with the Degels ... it was fun. Abby hates sand, but as long as Daddy held her in the water or she was on the towel, all was well.

We had so much fun visiting with Christopher, Amanda, Conner, and Avery ... oh, and don't forget Quincy & Chandler. We definitely realized it would be fun to live closer to these guys! They were good sports & put us up for quite a few nights. The food, drink & company was great and we look forward to doing it again! Come see us in IL! :)

River Fun

Another fun thing about Judy & Jim's ... there is a river that Abby could throw things into -- just rocks & sticks, people. Their home was absolutely beautiful & they even have a cute little guest cottage. It was so much fun that we got to stop by and see them!
