- Monday - Connor had his 2nd week of Football camp from 12-2p and was able to catch a 40 yard pass! He loves it! Then come the evening we had his baseball game where he had a good evening.
- Tuesday - Big day for Maci girl! We got her braces put on at 730a - this is just round 1 which will be on for a year at most. It is 4 brackets right now and a bite plate on the roof of her mouth. She was super excited but quickly realized how sore this made her mouth. She was a trooper though! Rosie then got a grooming and is super soft and fluffy again! Connor went to day 2 of football camp. What a busy day, thankfully no plans in the evening!
- Wednesday - Packing day for the WI Dells. We got a lot of work done to be ready to take off on our trip. Connor had day 3 of his camp. In the evening we had another baseball game and Connor had more fun with his buddies! We wrapped up the evening and got a good night rest before the WI Dells!
- Thursday - We hit the road around 10a which got us to the Dells around 2p. The dogs had a great house sitter in our summer nanny, Kristy! Once we arrived, we were first to get there so we took the kids to the rope course and playground. Zehr's were the next to arrive followed by Cassem's and then Fike's. After all were there, we headed out of the cabin and out for dinner. We enjoyed some Mexican food and then hustled home for some evening swimming until 10p. Once kids were down for the night, adults played telestrations after dark and enjoyed cocktails.

Friday :
- Dads had an early golf tee time. The moms finally got up and rolling with the kids and then headed with them to the Deer Park. Such a fun stop every year!
- We then hauled the kids to an outdoor waterpark at the resort where we splashed around until the dads arrived. We continued to swim, enjoyed a later lunch and kept floating.
- When we headed back to the cabin, I took a quick nap then we all got up and headed to Buffalo Phil's for dinner to have our food delivered by train.
- The kids enjoyed the arcade as well and by the time we got home, everyone was ready to crash. Only 4 adults made it up for drinks this night : Clint, John, Jacey and Gena :) 1 per family!

Connor is "that guy!!"
He wanted his tattoo on his stomach vs arm like all other kids
He also made friends with some 30something year old guys when they let him play bags during dinner
Every time we saw them they would fist bump and he showed them his stomach tattoo 😹 2 of them in pic below
Connor brings so much laughter to our lives!!
