Wow, it's been a long time since I have written an entry here! I hope you all have not given up on me. The summer has been very busy and is now almost gone. Here are some of the highlights.
At the beginning of August we went on the Pike family vacation with all the extended Pike family at Green Lake in Wisconsin. The whole family rented three small cabins (1 room) and one large cabin that had a large kitchen and family area. We shared our cabin with John and Cassie, and we had a great week enjoying the beautiful grounds. We did a golf scramble one evening which was really fun, especially for those of us who rarely golf, and had a kids carnival another day.
On August 31 I went back to work, but I have dropped my schedule down to 20 hours a week, at least until busy season in mid-January. That was such a relief as I was not at all keen on only seeing Rob and Will for a few hours in the evening after being spoiled all summer seeing them all the time. For the days that I am working Cassie will be watching Will along with the three Pluth kids at their house. They also love to hold Will, and Raegan is quite the little babysitter in the making!
Last week we went to the Minnesota State Fair and had a blast! Will was really good in his stroller, and loved all the sights and lights. We ate our way through the day and in the evening watched a junior high rodeo competition and then also saw some fireworks. The weather was perfect for being outdoors.
Well, those are the highlights, but here are a few more random pictures. Enjoy!
