Wisconsin Trip in Pictures

And were off! So in July 23rd we headed out for an 18 hours trip to WI. The kids were great for the trip other then the 45 min that I posted about below, but after we stopped and they played at Burger King all was well. We were packed in for a long night of driving.

Ashlyn took a picture of Daddy driving!

Laurie's Farm

We went and visited Trever's cousin Laurie and her farm they just bought. The kids were very excited about all the animals. Ryan could not get enough of the dog. He just kept screaming and pointing at it. (yes it was chilly there, I think it was in the 60's the morning we went to Laurie's) Ashlyn loved the kittens.

Bob the baby calf that Laurie had! Ashlyn like that it
sucked your finger as long as it was not her finger!


St. Croix County Fair!

The kids loved seeing all the animals at the fair!

Ashlyn loved the pony rides!

The kids also love all the rides at the fair. Ashlyn thought it was

cool that Ryan could ride the rids with her. They both loved all of them.

Olivia's Birthday!

Olivia is Trever's Cousin Rhonda's little girl. She turned 4 while we were there so we got to go to her birthday party. Ashlyn and her had a lot of fun playing together.

Ryan loved the dump truck, but of coarse Sissy had to get on with him.

Ashlyn thought it was fun to walk the dog. This is the first time she has walked a dog.

Tom & Nancy's

We stayed at Tom and Nancy's (Trever's aunt and uncle) Thanks so much for a great time and letting us stay. You all are awesome. The kids had a great time riding in the wagon with all the cousins. I think my kids would have stayed in the wagon all day if they would have let them.

Mall of America

I had never been to Mall of America and it's only about an hour or so from Trever's family. Trever and I took the kids one day and had a great time. I would love to go back to shop but we just hung out in the kids section and let the kids ride the rides and stuff. They had a blast!

The big Farris Wheel that we went on at the end. The kids loved all the rides

The Backyardagains where there and the kids got to go hug them.
Ashlyn thought this was the coolest!

Ryan not so sure what to think of it all!

Then we saw DORA! Ashlyn LOVES Dora! The Backyardagians were not so cool after this. She said "Mommy this is my favorite now!"

We rode lots of rides. The kids both love all the little kids rides.
