Sioux Falls

This is right after we told them Nicole was pregnant, don't they look surprised?

(they didn't believe us)

We got to see my Grandparents

(click on the picture to take a look at the shirt my parents got me)

the VanDyke tradition

Flying in Indiana

Ready for launch.(Pretty intense too)

She's going to be a cheerleader.

Take-off!

Spiderman even made an appearance.

They jumped in the bin we had the pop in to cool off.

Happy Birthday

For Darwin's birthday we went out to lunch at IHOP,

and then rented scooters and cruised the island.

Our friends Stephen and Jessica.

Ready to race...

A group shot at the end

Diving Duermo

Dog days of Summer!

They were really tired after playing with Bella.

Pool Party and Rodeo..?

Dar and Michelle were ultimately the winners!

We got to SWIM!

It was a record high 85 degrees outside, but the pool was only a slightly bearable 72!

This is probably making it look warmer and more appealing than it actually was. Duermo loves chasing and barking at everyone in the pool.

Someone drank Nicole's gatorade.

But we caught the culprit, ...blue tongued ("red-handed")

We enjoyed laying out in the sun and working on our tans

but since it was our first-day we got a little overcooked.
(Someone forgot to take off her sunglasses)
