Final Summer Vacation - Madison, Wisconsin

It's been a crazy summer filled with exciting trips. The kids and I ended our whirlwind summer travel with a visit to our friends in Wisconsin. Debbie, my mom, and I piled into a van with all five kids and made the trip up to see Sarah and her family. It was a packed van without an inch of space to spare but we made it!

The week was filled with tons of fun activities. We hung out at Ann's house and let the kids drive the cool cars and bikes. Will and Alex LOVED the motorcycles and actually did a pretty good job of steering them.


Since it was a warm day, we set up the slip and slide and this giant pirate ship/slide. Will wasn't so sure of the ship but after watching the big kids for awhile he got on and had a blast.


Morgan isn't afraid of anything. We were pushing her down the slip and slide and she giggled and laughed the whole way down!

Another day we went to visit Sarah's brother and sister in-law and took the kids to their local beach. I was shocked when Morgan dug right into the sand considering she hated it on our trip to Alabama a few weeks earlier.

A trip to Wisconsin wouldn't be complete without a stop by their fabulous FREE zoo.

The kids had a blast and wore themselves out every day. Thanks Sarah for letting us crash at your brand new house!

When all the kids were together we had 11 kids ages 6 and under. We were able to capture 10 of the 11 kids on this night. Baby Will (Sarah's son) was already in bed so he missed out on the group photo.
