Iowa to Minnesota.

Whew! What a great vacation we had. It started with a few days in Okoboji and ended in Minnesota for Sarah and Caleb's wedding (joel's sister). We had an amazing time and now that we are back home things seem extra quiet :( It was fun taking Jackson to Okoboji and showing him all the places I have come to LOVE. Maybe someday he will appreciate it as much as I do. The wedding was also incredible. Everything from the beautiful reception venue to the fun photo booth party favors, made it the perfect wedding. Jackson got to wear a tux, stay up late, and be held by numerous people....all that on top of no nap, made for an interesting evening :) We had a great time and I think even Jackson would say he misses everyone. Im pretty sure he is going through "pick me up/hold me" withdrawal right now because he doesnt have grandparents, aunts, and uncles holding him and playing with him every second he's awake. Im trying to entertain him, but the pile of laundry is practically up to the ceiling....a fun time had by all of us.

1st time for Jackson in the lake...kinda scared me, but it didnt seem to phase him.

Time for the tux
Putting on the shiny black shoes that I drove all over Denver to find. They stayed on his feet for a whole 5 minutes. not kidding.
