We took a trip west with the Lenzen family again this summer with our campers. We were there from Friday to Friday and went on many hikes and saw many beautiful places. This trip was another one that hopefully leaves a lot of memories with all of the kids 🙂

Another great start to the camping season this year. I did not get near as many pictures as I should have but we had beautiful weather and a nice time.
We took a trip with Grandma & Grandpa to Washington DC this year. We had a few things that we wanted to do including visiting the Holocaust Museum, a Smithsonian Museum, the White House, the Washington Monument, Arlington Cemetery, and many of the memorials that the city had to offer. We had a lot of laughs, some being at the expense of others such as Grandma getting her bag caught in the door of the Metro train and everyone freaking out 🙂 It was a great trip filled with fun memories.

Day 2 – Visits to the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum, the George Washington Monument, WWII Memorial, Vietnam Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, Korean War Memorial, MLK Memorial, FDR Memorial, and the Jefferson Memorial. Needless to say, our feet were sore at the end of the day.

This week Joey earned his final brown belt and hopes to test for his black belt in the spring. We are all very proud of him 🙂
We enjoyed a dads and kids weekend in Lanesboro with the Lenzen’s this year for our final camping trip of the season. Lots of fall chill and sun accompanied by bike rides and other fun.
