We've been doing trial runs all summer for our big trip to Mount Rushmore and Casper, WY. Today we loaded up the bus. The bus is spending the night in our driveway so we can head out first thing in the morning. When Emma was going to bed
Braden has had a flat tire on his bike for a long time. Yesterday he finally fixed it. Emma was happy to be back on her bicycle built for two.

I can't believe just a couple weeks ago Emma wouldn't get her face wet…
Can't believe Emma is 4 today!
Tonight we checked out the fair they do during Leprechaun Days. It's only a mile from our house and this is the first time we've ever been.
Grits… it's what's for breakfast.
