we like to laugh-HARD.

soooo many fun pictures. here's the first day of fun with my family in Storm Lake, IA.

i will share this sweet time in pictures, rather than writing about it.:)

our first night. ashley and i have been camping out in the living room.

playing with my seester. i miss that. she brings out the big kid in me.

mom and daddy were excited to see the church, so i brought them by while Ryan was working.

here's daddy and ryan talking at the pulpit. i like this pic alot.

the family thinks this should be my new job as the pastor's wife...i think not-"twinkle twinkle little star" will be sung every sunday then.;)

this is what happens, when people from the south come up to the north where it's cold and windy.:)

getting ready for the day is alot more fun with seesters:) we missed ilene.

dad came to see what was going on:)

...and it just became a party:)

we took a lil trip to the playground at Kingspoint-and ash and i did some climbing and playing...the things i miss when i don't have my lil sister to do this with:)

we told mom she needed to hold onto the soccer ball real tight, incase she fell into the water, she'd have a flotation device:)

early morning bakery run.

coffee and donuts with the men in my life:)

i love my family.

i love laughing with my family.

i love that when we're all together, our laughter and fun multiplies.

we miss you Ate!

our second day is coming up soon:)
