Valley Fair!
We went to Valley Fair today! My work sponsored this employee event and we had so much fun! We were actually really suprised that Charlie enjoyed the rides so much...well most of them! We started out riding in the antique cars and Charlie even got to drive!
Then we spotted the train! Charlie is all about trains these days and boy was he excited! This was the first time he's ever been on a ride let alone by himself! Mom was a bit nervous!! He did really well though and even went on this one TWICE!
You can sort of see Kevin waiving on the back of this whirly boat ride...Charlie is too short to see. He wasn't super fond of this one. 
After a little lunch, we mosied on and found this ride. Boy was this a hit, he loved the semi's and this was also a ride that he did twice...good thing the lines were short! Oh and sorry that the video is sideways...I tried to fix it w/ no luck.

I guess the bees were bumpy, he didn't cry or anything but he looked down and put his finger nervously in his mouth and was excited to get off!
On the way out we hit up the antique cars again...this time is was my turn to drive w/ C...I wasn't very good!

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!
Wesley & Tanner has SO MUCH FUN!
The Johnson's (WOW, 17 of us now!)

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.
