Going West - Northwest Iowa

On Friday, July 9, we started our 10 day vacation toward Montana!

The girls were ready to go and we had a lot of stuff!

DAY 1

The beginning of a LOT of van time

 Our first stop was in Le Mars 

for the famous Blue Bunny ice cream -

our girls have never been there before

being tourists 

DAY 2

We stayed overnight at Grandma and Grandpa Van Grouws

 for two days to break up our trip.

We happened to get in on Hull's SummerFest parade!

 waiting for the "Largest Candy parade" to start 

Avery, Uncle Curt and Jaelyn

 Here comes GRANDMA, too bad she ran out of water

by the time she got to us!

Hull Christian's float

Then Daddy took Aubrey to the play

"The Little Mermaid" put on at Boyden-Hull

They also got to do some fun activities in the park

 Meanwhile Avery and Mom stayed back, took naps and ate cookies :)

The girls love swining on their playset
