Dog Tired

What do you get when you have 1 lake, loads of badger holes, chipmunks to chase, and acres and acres of open space...

June Happenings


Lori and Olivia had a chance to come out to Utah and visit for Grandpa's funeral. For the 10 days they were here, we stayed in a hotel in Salt Lake, played at home, and got to go to the cabin. It was a fun time...

Pennsylvania Play

About 2 weeks ago, Steve and I got to go visit my sister Lori, her husband Nate, and their daughter Olivia in Pennsylvania. We had so much fun in the beautiful Pennsylvania landscape. We got to go yurting in the Ohiopyle State Park, strawberry picking, and had a great time just playing. We also got to go visit Frank Lloyd Wright's famous residence Fallingwater, which was awesome. You can click here to read about it. Thanks for letting us spend our vacation at your place Lori and Nate!

This is the yurt next to the one we stayed in. Ours looked just like this one. (Photo taken by Olivia!)

These are the bunks in the yurt. The yurt was actually a lot bigger than I expected... it had 2 bunks, a table with 4 chairs, a bench, a fridge, microwave, and a stove built in the countertop. It was a really fun experience.

Steve, Nate, and Olivia went on a fun bike ride.

A day of swimming in State College

We got to go to the Way Fruit Farm and pick some yummy strawberries! Olivia was great at picking the best berries.
