JC & Mike at the Bonfire at the Metzger's in Iowa

Can you see the hotdogs he is roasting?

Bonfire at the metzger's

The fire was so hot & high that Aly had to use a 10 foot pole to roast her hotdog.

A surprise visit from Copper the dog & the Maas Family

The Maas family surprised us by driving from Rochester to be at Aly's graduation party. I'm so bad with taking pictures...people were running around so much throwing water balloons, squirting water guns, throwing frisbee...that I didn't even get any pictures of them.

Jake & I are going to do a 52 mile bike ride in July that we are training for.

Jake and I went on a bike ride Saturday morning. He was proud to climb this hill.

Aly & Jake

Happy Graduation Aly!

Aly will be going to Cornell College in Iowa to study pre-veterinary medicine.

Kindergarden & Highschool are behind these ladies!

Happy Graduation!

Happy graduation to Aly!

Hats off :)

"In Cod We Trust" is what our float said--Advertising for our lutifisk dinner. James & Noelle got to dress as butter!

Lutifisk king & queen

What did we get ourselves into? A lady from our church custom made these for the Syttendai Mai, Stoughton's big Norwegian celebration. We did the canoe race & were in two parades with these costumes.
