Summer Vacation/Wedding/Trip

    This summer I flew to Wisconsin for a friends wedding.  My sister went with me and we used it as our vacation and made quite a trip out of it.  
    Four years ago we went with our family to this friends sisters wedding.  This time around Hannah and I had fun visiting some of the same places we had been four years ago as well as walking around the town were we grew up. 
    It was my first time flying and I was so nervous.

    Needless to say I survived and we arrived at the O'Hare air port  and were picked up by the sister of the bride (the one who was married four years ago) and her husband.
    The next few days were busy getting ready for the wedding and running to the air port to pick up more family.  I rode along to the Milwaukee air port and had a great time walking around the city.

I love the lines and beauty of this building.

The wedding was beautiful.  And I got to experience a little bit of being a wedding planner!  It was so much fun.

    After the wedding we took it easy.  I made good use of the hammock in the gazebo. :)  Hannah and I walked around town looking at all the old places we remember from when we lived there many many years ago.  Every thing looked smaller then we remembered it because when we left we were so little!

And....THERE IS A HARLEY DAVIDSON STORE IN LAKE GENEVA!!!!  I saw it and was so excited.  Hannah and I had to go in and I took pictures to show Grandpa when I got back.

    We went on a walk by the lake and I had to get pictures in the front of the Stone House.
   




    Four years ago we walked this same path and had pictures in front of the same house (below)

    All together we had a wonderful trip and had a great time.  But we were glad to get home.

Life Changes

    Hey all of you blog readers, I thought I would give you a little update on my life.
    I have not been on here near as much as I used to be or would like to have been over the summer but life changes happen. :)
    Four months ago I moved out of the house and in with my grandparents.  The move in and of it's self was a big step.  There are lots of little things that change from one household to another and I am still adjusting to some of those.
    I have been experiencing many new things, friends, adventures, work, school but through it all one thing has always been there, God.  He is so good and has blessed me many times, my faith and trust in him grows everyday as I watch how he cares and provides for me.
    Things are starting to settle down a little and become more normal so I hope to return to my writing, crocheting and blogging.
    I am looking forward to what God has planned for me this coming year. 
    Keep dropping by as I share my adventures from the summer and the months ahead.  I will see you around.
