Our 4th of July Weekend

I'm finally getting to this post - better late than never! We had a wonderful 4th of July weekend at Lake Okoboji (O-chee-bo-gee, as Cale says it) with the Driscolls! We left Thursday night after work so we had all of Friday and Saturday to enjoy the long weekend. Here is a snapshot at our weekend activities.

1 Year & Family Photo Shoot

We had a Photo shoot with Kari and Katie from Kari McGill Photography of Spring Valley last week. We had to reschedule a few times because of the rain, but they came to Tom and Joni's (Grandma and Grandpa Wehrenberg's) house Thursday evening. How great is that? -- They came to us! -- No extra charge! I found Kari on the web and was very excited about having her take our pics. Click on the link above for a sneak peak at our photo shoot.

Oxbow

A Picnic & The Little Zoo

Saturday morning, we packed up and headed to Byron for Oxbow Park and Zollman Zoo (a.k.a, The Little Zoo).

We started off with some play time and a picnic at one of the many picnic areas in the park. We found some walking trails near the picnic area that we'll have to explore on another visit -- Saturday, our mission was to see the animals.

The zoo was great! Our last visit was just over a year ago. We had a similar outing a week or two after Maren was born last year. It was a little easier this time!

What a fun day! We were all tired out on the way home. Maren was asleep before we were out of the park. Cale made it most of the way home but gave in near the end of our ride, too. Once we got home, we all had a long nap - too long! We're looking forward to our next trip back to Oxbow.

Pictures!
