Can't Believe It's Been One Year

We decided to celebrate our First Anniversary by going up to Door County for the weekend. On our way there, we decided we had to stop at the famous Lambeau Field, home of the Green Bay Packers. We are officially Wisconsinites. We have visited their coveted field. It was nice, but I would not want to spend all day there =)


My Favorite Cheesehead

The SUnsets in Door County are beautiful.

Beautiful Door County

Door County is an awesome spot up in Northern Wisconsin on a little strip past Green Bay. It's like the Cape Cod of Wisconsin. It was so much fun and it had such cute little towns and shops. It was the perfect place to spend our Anniversary.
We went to this Scandinavian Restaurant for breakfast and they have real live goats up on the roof who eat the grass- it was hilarious! And the food was so yummy...
For our Anniversary dinner we went to a really nice restaurant and had a great meal, but the highlight was the dessert...it was the most amazing triple berry cobbler we have ever had. We still talk about it.
Playing on Lake Michigan- it's weird to think this is the same lake we have in Milwaukee- it's soooo big!
So we decided to rent a paddle boat and this is what they gave us. It was the oldest thing I've ever seen, but it was worth the experience=)
Sailing was awesome! It was so much and the weather was perfect for it.

Happy 4th of July!


Even though fireworks, ALL fireworks, are outlawed in Milwaukee we decided to light up some sparklers and have a little fun...Daring I know =)

We went down to Lake Michigan and rode our bikes around it. It was so pretty and a really fun ride!
We had to make it to a Brewers game over the summer and Dave's Med School played Marquette in a baseball game and so we got some cheap tickets. It was a great weekend!

Home Sweet Home

It was SO much fun being home! We crammed alot into the week we were in Missoula and had a blast while doing it. We hit the Dairy Queen, Out to Lunch, hiked the M, went boating at the lake, went to the mall, saw my parent's new house multiple times and had fun just hanging out with my family. I was so glad that I had Kristin and Kerri there, but we definitely felt a missing void with Melissa in Texas. Maybe next summer...


Mackenzie River Pizza... Yum

Thanks for the pedicures Mom!
Girl's Day out
Boating at Salmon Lake was so much fun. We did go wakeboarding but we left our camera in the car and by the time we got it out, it was too chilly for me to get back in. I forget how pretty it is in Montana.



Watching Dad make his famous pies
Picnic at Bonner Park
Kerri and I have a very "love-hate" relationship =)

I'm so glad I got to see Kristin again and her cute little McKenna!


My last time at my house! =( It was so sad to think that was the last time I would ever stay in the house I grew up in. We will miss it, but it will be fun to stay in the new one and have lots more room. Goodbye Arlington Drive!

Hiking the 'M' was a must for me, so the morning we left to go over to Washington we woke up and hiked it. It was so pretty with the sun coming up and I got a little sad to leave Missoula.






Fun In Pasco

Being in Pasco was a lot of fun as well. It was nice to relax and hang out with the Barber family. We played lots of games, ate yummy food, and spent many hours out on the golf course. So many fun memories!

We went to the Columbia River Temple to do a session and it brought back lots of memories from our wedding. It was beautiful!

Family picture at Grandma Barber's- She lives right in front of the temple and has the most gorgeous view.
Family Golf Tournament- Brad won this round and claims he is the new family champion. Good job!






We Love the Wisconsin State Fair!!

Well Wisconsin does not mess around when it comes to their fair. It is HUGE. It lasts for about two weeks and they have every type of fried food you can imagine. They do deep-fried oreos, snickers, mac and cheese, cheese curds, pretty much anything you can think of =). But they sure do taste yummy. It was lots of fun and we got our fill of flavored milk, livestock, and fair food.




Lots of Rain = Flooding

We rode our bikes down to this little stream that goes through Milwaukee and it was so high and really flooded. Kinda scary!



Storms make us a little nervous =)
