A weekend of fun with Grandpa and Grandma Cindy

This past weekend Chad, the boys, and I went to Grandpa and Grandma Cindy's house. On Saturday morning, we went fishing at Uncle Kenneth's house. The boys really enjoyed learning how to cast and trying to catch a fish. Then after dinner, we drove to Land Between the Lakes and drove through the Elk and Bison Preserve. While driving through and saw the Elk and Bison all over. It was a great way to end the day.

Look there is a really big Elk, right over there.

Aren't I just the cutest?

Our New Niece, Luna

On August 21, 2011, Luna Anne Fischer was born at 1:58am.  She was 7lbs 9oz and 19.5 inches long. It was a long a strenuous labor, but Kelly did wonderful and it was all worth it in the end.  Luna is now home doing well.  Chad and I had the great opportunity to spend last Saturday with Eric, Kelly, and Luna.  It was a wonderful day and I don't think Luna cried once.  We are so excited to watch her grow and see if she keeps all that wonderful black hair!

Look at the pretty face and all that hair!

Destin, Florida

In June, we had the opportunity to travel to Destin, Florida. The boys had never been to the ocean before. We started the drive on Saturday and arrive in Destin at about noon on Sunday. It was a long drive, but well worth the trip when we saw that clear blue water. We spent most of our time on the beach: swimming and playing in the sand. We also were able to go on a dolphin cruse, eat at some wonderful restaurants, and go shopping. It was a very memorable trip.
