Vacation 2011

Our annual vacation started mid-July this year.  We got in a visit to Arlington, hosted some visiting family and even squeezed in a trip to San Diego for a vacation from the vacation.  Mixed in there was a fair bit of cleanup from the July 1 storm that felled a tree on the garage and another against the house.  The rest of this summer will have a slower pace as I recover from a hernia repair surgery.  I had initially thought that the repair from last summer failed but apparently the issue was with a brand new hernia nearby.   Anyway, recovery from this one is going much better than last time.

Here are some photos of the trip over to Danbury as well as our visit to see the Wiemanns and Posts in Arlington on our first weekend back.  Enjoy!

A Summer Visit to Arlington

The week before we came back we packed up the car and headed down to Arlington Minnesota to visit family.   The first day we went out to the Posts’ farm to have dinner with Aunt Lea Ann, Uncle Steven and Cousin Nina.  Grandma and Grandpa Wiemann also were there and Uncle Paul and Bev stopped by as well.

Visiting the farm is a favorite for Kai and Nora since they have chickens (Lea Ann stacked the coop so that there were sure to be plenty of eggs to find) as well as goats, cats, and lots of room to run around.
