Madison, Wisconsin

This July has been a busy one but that won't slow us down! After we got home from Michigan City we had a few days at home before we were back on the road again, this time to Wisconsin. Alex and I decided to head up a day early to explore Madison and I'm so glad we did.

We mostly spent our time at the Children's Museum and then grabbed a delicious lunch at Dotty Dumpling's Dowry. We googled the best cheese curds in Madison and Dotty's is where we landed. Thankfully they did not disappoint, Margo even did a dance of approval. After lunch we headed to the Dells for our first full family vacation in over a decade!

family pictures

While we were at the lake we decided to take some impromptu family pictures and they turned out amazing! I cannot wait to get them printed and framed!

Michigan City

Almost every year for the past 6 years, my family heads north to Lake Michigan for the week of July 4th. We always end up having the best weather and the best time and this year was no exception. We played at the beach, pool, park and playground all week and Margo earned every nap.  It was so fun to watch all the cousins play together and see how they've grown from the previous year.

father's day

Happy Father's Day to all the dad's, grandpa's, dad-like-figures and soon-to-be-dad's!

Happy Father's Day to my dad who is such an amazing, kind, generous man. I cannot imagine life without him. He has always been such a great example in all aspects to me and my siblings and incidentally, I've inherited a lot of his quirks traits and I love him for it! You're the best, Dad. Enjoy your day!

Margo can't articulate it yet, so I will on her behalf- Happy Father's Day Alex!! We love you so much and are so thankful for you. You are an amazing dad and I love watching you with Margo. You are loving, kind, patient, sacrificial and so, so, so goofy! I can't imagine parenting without you. We hope you enjoy golfing today!
