Fun Family Picnic

Last weekend we started a new tradition with Nick's family. We traveled to Sun Prairie to his Aunt and Uncle's house and got together for a family reunion/picnic. It was a ton of fun and the first nice day out of the last week or more. The kids had a blast playing with their cousins and all the fun yard games and toys that Anne and Ward had for them to explore.

Clara loved the tube. Actually all the kids loved it!!

Kaelynn just coming out of the tube.

Trip to Colorado

The Hauser Family embarked on a long van ride to vacation in Colorado. We spent the first few days in Denver doing touristy things with the kids and then headed north to Loveland to stay with friends and see the mountains. We had a great time seeing the sites and we had an even more enjoyable time visiting with our friends.

Butterfly House in Denver: There were tropical flowers all throughout the butterfly house and the girls thought they were pretty cool so I took their pictures next to some.




Denver Zoo:

Rockies vs. Cubs Game:

Outside Cooling Down!!

It has been so hot so we spent some time outside in the yard playing in our small pool and of course running through the sprinkler.
