Last month we made our way west to spend some time with family. We loved spending a week in one of our favorite places with some of our favorite people. We played games, spent time with our Moldenhauer family, went on walks with the pups, had long talks, ate LOTS of food, read Harry Potter, played in the water, and somehow Melina even convinced us to do a Murder Mystery night! Here is our week in pictures!

Moldenhauer Dinner
By a very happy coincidence, just around the corner of the lake, my uncle and aunt and all of my cousins were having their family reunion the same week as ours. This lake has such a special place in all of our hearts and so it was so wonderful to spend the evening together. We do not get to see each other often enough.
