Take a Little Trip

The last week of June, Libby and mama took Barnabas and embarked upon a little trip to South Dakota. It was a cousins reunion of granddad's, and we met at their house and departed with cousins Kevin and Katy for a long week in the mountains. The two pictures below show Granddad's and Uncle Mason's jeeps, and then you see Kevin's suburban. He and Katy were pulling a trailer full of furniture and appliances as they were leaving the Black Hills to go to their new home in Alaska. They had some car trouble and we spent the first day repairing and recovering from the slow-going, but we had a great time on the road nonetheless. By the time we arrived we were ready for some relaxing - and though we didn't get much of that done, we kept busy and before we knew it, it was time to head back home to daddy. Below are some of the pictures we took to tell the story of our time in SD. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures that tell the story of the 11 hour drive home. (Thankfully, there wasn't much of a story. Libby was amazingly good and entertained herself the whole day despite a comment that "staying buckled up is not very fun." We are thankful for our DVD player and a very easy going little girl.)
