Let's start with...we're home! We actually got back on Sunday afternoon, but after being gone for 11 days we had quite a bit to do before we both went back to work today.
Here's a quick recap of our trip, and then I'll post some pics and let you see how much fun we had, so I don't have to tell you everything!
Here's a quick recap of our trip, and then I'll post some pics and let you see how much fun we had, so I don't have to tell you everything!
*Flew to Chicago on Thurs 8/28...Taylor was wonderful on the airplane! Stayed in a hotel
that night.
*Matt met customers while Taylor and I had breakfast and swam in the pool...FUN!
*Headed up to Wisconsin and spent Labor Day weekend at Matt's family property on the
Pike River in Amberg, Wisconsin. A super fun weekend!
*Taylor and I spent some quality time with Matt's dad and step-mom Annette while he
pretty much drove around the entire state meeting customers and doing business...all
while we were having fun with his family!
*Spent the last 3 days with Matt's mom and step-dad, and his brother Mitch and his family.
*On the Friday before we left, Taylor came down with a really high fever (104.0), which scared me to death. It was a long night...I couldn't sleep and kept getting up to check on her. She was fine, but wasn't quite herself for the rest of the visit. My poor baby :( ...today is actually the first day that her fever has been completely gone.
*Left Appleton, Wisconsin Sunday 9/7 at 9am, connected in Minneapolis, and made it home
yesterday around 3pm (keep in mind the 2 hour time change). It was a long day for
all of us, but Taylor was SO good again! She's such a trooper...even being sick, she was a great little traveler :)
I took 200+ pictures on this trip so it was really hard to sort thru them and decide which ones to post! I apologize in advance...there are A LOT of pictures!
We're off!
The Amberg parade and Fireman's Picnic
Taylor's first ice cream cone at Gramma Nettie's Antiques & Sweets Shop
Her first table dance. First and only, for sure ;)
Beer butt chicken on the grill at the cabin.
Auntie Lisa helping Taylor cool off in the cold river!
Playing in the sand...and eating it too. Yum!
Gabby...crazy girl!
I loved Allie's little pony tail :)
Taylor being goofy, playing inside the tube!
Relaxing with Great Grandma :)
Taylor loved the sweet corn! She ate several ears throughout the week!
The boys
Mitch and Matt...can you tell these two are related?!
Floating the river...so much fun!
Cheese, Allison!
Daddy Dave and Nettie's backyard
Being silly with Grandpa at breakfast!
At the playground on the last day of our trip
Whew! I warned ya! ;)After all the fun, the first thing we said when we walked in the door?
Man, it's good to be home!
**On a more serious note...we forgot to bring home cheese. Who goes to Wisconsin and doesn't bring home cheese??? Apparently we do. So, if you're in Wisconsin and you're reading this...send cheese! Whips and curds would be lovely :) [and extra whips for my preggie friend ;)]

Great post and pictures! It looks like you had a great week here in da Midwest :) It was great to see you! If we make any trips to Wisconsin in the near future, we'll be sure to buy you cheese...Although I don't think we'll be doing anymore traveling until the end of October when we go to Neenah for Maggie's wedding and to bring home our puppy!
Looks like you guys had an awesome trip!
Wait, am I the preggie friend that gets the whips??? If so, I love you even more than I already do! Great pictures...perfect end-of-summer trip!
Welcome back! xoxo
Tiffany, what other preggie friend do I know that will eat a whole bag of whips with me?! Of course they're for you! :)
