Summer Ending...

The end of August marked not only the end of summer but the end of our first daycare. Tyler started going to a new daycare just down the street, which is great for mom & dad! He loves Michelle and is learning so much. She does pre-school a few days a week and we come home with colored pages and projects all the time!

Here are pictures on the first day of school...



Here is Tyler riding my friend Amy's Harley....



And just a few to show how big he is and that the boot doesn't stop this kid....

Iowa State Fair

What is August in Iowa without a trip to the State Fair! We got to see the baby animals, big animals, do the Little Hands on the Farm, and of course - the food!

Tyler liked the tractor driving the most on the Little Hands on the Farm.

Do you think we like the ice cream??

Welcome to Buschwood Estates!

In August the whole family got together and enjoyed an afternoon/evening at the wonderful Buschwood Estates!!! The pond is awesome, equipped with a dock, paddle boat, sandy beach, Applebees bench, cabin with a flushing toilet, grill, and fire pit. It was a GREAT evening! Way to go, Mom & Dad!

Deck Party - Hallquist Style!

The Hensley's made it back to Iowa, so that calls for a family deck party! Check out our fun...

First, you HAVE to get out the kiddie table.....question is whose beer is that...




Then the frogs come out...they are everywhere!

Best place to hide from them - Grandma Pete & Aunt Carrie's laps...

The next morning...it's never too early to start farming....

Watching cartoons is always a good thing to keep them entertained.....

Minnesota.....part 4

And of course, what's a Minnesota vacation with out fishing, swimming, Turtle races, and Zorbaz!!
