Okoboji!

We spent July 24th - 27th in Okoboji w/ the whole Johnson clan. Kevin and I celebrated our 4th Anniversary on the 24th...and of course sharing this day w/ our nephew Tanner (he turned 6!). Our days were spent lounging at the beach, swimming, laughing, talking, running after kids, and enjoying the beautiful weather that we were so fortunate to have.
Roaming the beach
Charlie spent most of the vacation walking up and down the dock (followed closely by an adult of course....we got some good exercise, LOL!)

Taylor & Maddie spent quite a bit of time on the paddle boats.
Wishing he could ride too!

July 4th!

I was a little nervous about keeping Charlie up to watch the fireworks, but I'm so glad we did!! He LOVED them!! He wasn't scared at all and was such a good boy sitting on either my lap or Grandma Arlet's. What great memories!!!




Down on the Farm!


We spent a lot of time outside on the Johnson farm this weekend...the weather was beautiful!!! Charlie had a lot of fun exploring on the farm!


First Lollipop! LOL

Lovin the Park!









Granada, MN

On the way home to IA for the 4th weekend, we stopped in Granada, MN to check out a scrapbooking retreat. We were there a little early so we stopped off at a little park, then took some pictures around the little town.






Happy Father's Day!!
