Memorial Day Weekend

We made a nice trip to NWI over Memorial Day weekend.
We left early Friday morning and came back home Monday evening.

Our first stop Friday afternoon, was to see Curt's new lambs!

Aubrey was a little unsure at first, but we very brave!

such cute little lambs!

Avery was TERRIFIED of all the animals on the farm the first day!

a much needed nap for Avery after a no nap trip over

Friday night, the dads were in charge of the kids

they hung out at Josh's house for the night

lots of backyard fun!

pizza with the dads and kids

Meanwhile, it was GIRLS NIGHT OUT!
First stop - Five Guys for a FAST supper

Then off to a night of Wine and Canvas in Sioux Falls

starting the process...

getting there

"dry time"

my end result

All of our masterpieces :)


Avery was still quite worried about the animals on Day 2

Aubrey wanted to visit them all the time

Avery screamed and clung on while outside
