Back from Vacation

Well we are back from vacation although not back into our old routine. I still have to upload pictures all 300 of them so please be patient with me.

We all had a great time. Hayden and I went out to Wisconsin a few days before Jon did so we could spend more time with Grandma and Grandpa Ollmann, Auntie Haliee and Auntie Lisa. We were even able to do a play date with Brooklynn and Ruchell. Hayden's favorite thing was playing with "Woof" or Codee. They were like the best of friends. Hayden wasn't intimidated at all by the dog. During vacation I did put up a video on our youtube bar showing Hayden playing fetch with Codee. It is a really cute video you will have to check it out sometime.

Saturday July 25 we left for Rhinelander. Hayden rode with Grandma and Grandpa, while Jon and I headed to Madison to the Nitty Gritty and to view the city. We had a good time and best of all with didn't have to entertain the little man for a 5 hour car ride. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa.

Vacation in Rhinelander was relaxing. The weather wasn't the greatest so we spent most of the time fishing, playing cards, and relaxing. We were able to ski on Friday the nicest day of the week, and if you can believe I actually got up this year. I guess it paid off getting a gym membership.

It was sad when we had to leave, but we were able to have dinner and a bonfire with Nick, Ruchell, Brooklynn, Mike and Mel on Saturday. On Sunday we were heading to Ben's birthday party. We had no idea the family set it up so it was also a surprise party for Hayden as well. Thanks everyone for doing that, we had such and great time. Special thanks to Ben for sharing his birthday party with Hayden. We know it must have been hard to do since Hayden loves being the center of attention. As we know if he isn't he will run out into the street....

Monday Hayden and I met Estelle at breakfast. Then went to see the grandparents at the nursing home. It was a very busy vacation. Jon headed home Monday and then Hayden and I followed Wednesday. Tuesday Aunt Nancy took us to the Racine Zoo. It was fantastic, Hayden loved the lion and tiger. At the zoo you get really close to the animals it was pretty cool. Plus the lion was roaring what a cool added bonus.

Well thanks to everyone that made vacation so special. We miss you all! I will post pictures and update our blog photo tomorrow.
