Iowa for the 4th!

We made the annual trip to DJ Ranch in Clear Lake for the 4th of July. Eloise loved the trampoline and running around with all the cousins. She rode Meiko with Mama but was not a fan of the golf cart. We let her stay up for the fireworks and after a short rain shower we were able to watch them out by the fire. It was another great few days celebrating Independence Day!

Another Birthday Party

The day after we celebrated Eloise turning 2, we got together with the Bergs to celebrate Uncle Kenneth's 80th birthday. My cousin Brian, his wife Kim and their kids Ruby, Mitchell and Archer were in MN from California for the party. It was great to see everyone and Eloise loved exploring all Uncle Kenneth's tractors!
