A Summary of Our Summer Adventures!

To say summer was a whirlwind would be an insane understatement. Of my 60 days of summer vacation (I'm not counting days I had to work off contract), we traveled we traveled 42! We figure we might as well while we're young and childless, right? :) So here's the synopsis:

Alaska: Family & Anniversary Cruise

We've already mentioned Alaska on our blog. But here are some of the highlights.

Mount Vernon, Illinois: Camping with the Hills
For dad's birthday we joined him for a camping trip! It was about time we got to check out that camper! It was a great (sweltering hot) weekend with the fam, and the pups had a blast! We CANT WAIT to be closer and be able to do this more often!!

Doug's got this camping thing down pat!

Zion, IL: 4th of July with the Fam (Montgomery/Uhll)
Fun times with the fam! We spent the whole 4th of July week with the Montgomery-Uhll family. We went fishing, boating (we almost didn't make it out of that alive), and to the aquarium! It was SO GOOD to be able to hang with the niece and nephew!

Salmon Fishing Trip

The jury is still out on who gets to claim this catch.

Dallas: Time with Devin & Katie; And Premier RALLY
Every year we travel down to Dallas for a Premier rally. This year, Denise got to head down a few days early and spend time with the baby bro & sis. Unfortunately.. not sure what happened to the camera during that time...
But we're also really proud of our whole downline and so grateful Krystle & Diana got to join us for their first rally!

Sunset Beach: Conference & Relax Time

Florida: Disney World
We've been meaning forever to get down and see Nate. So this year we decided to head down for a weekend at Disney as his birthday gift! Brian had never been to the parks either, so it was extra special. It was much needed time with one of our FAVORITE nephews!!

Water Ride at Animal Kingdom

Tryin out some tequila in Mexico. We liked the skull bottle it came in.

MAGICAL!

Kentucky: Hillingsworth Day.

Tommy Hollingsworth is one of Brian's best friends from college. He lives with his wife, Kristy, and FOUR kids on a farm in Ghent, Kentucky. We love visiting because their kids are AWESOME and because the farm is UBER relaxing!

Brian and I decided this year that we would declare Labor Day weekend to be Hillingsworth Day! Now and forever. Basically, Hillingsworth Day is an excuse to eat ice cream cake for breakfast and spoil our awesome niece & nephews.
