So a couple weeks ago (7\/25 – 8\/1), we had a wonderful week with the Luehmann family at Ironwood Springs Christian Ranch<\/a>. You, Mad, Dan and I flew from Rochester NY to Rochester MN on Sunday, and Uncle Mark was there to pick us up. After a short drive to the ranch, we got to see EVERYONE else – Elisabeth, Hakon, Amy, Oma, Opa, Gabriela, Moises, Niklas and Bianca… the only person missing from the group was Daddy JIm who joined us the next day.<\/p>\n

We had SUCH a fantastic time – riding horses, collaborating our way through crazy challenge courses that made us laugh, swimming a lot, using sling shots and playing archery, sliding down zip lines (you weren’t quite ready for this yet), 3 meals a day as a family with songs for grace, campfires with skits, camp songs and s’mores, and SO MUCH FUN FAMILY TIME.<\/p>\n

Daniel wrestled with Moises in the pool. He didn’t win, but he didn’t seem to mind that much.
\nYou and Elisabeth made the world’s longest chain of pipecleaner rings.
\nGrown-ups sat up late in the night talking.
\nOma and Amy compensated every bump, bruise and tear with handfulls of M&M’s.
\nBoard games, tattoos and arts & crafts including the painting of pet rocks.
\nGrown ups played sand volleyball, which made your Mama very, very happy.
\nWe had a whole family “game” of softball.
\nLots of pictures, of course!
\nHakon, Moises and Daniel did “guy things” like basketball and football while the rest of us swam.
\nAmy, Oma, Opa and Bianca took many hikes with you, Niklas and Elisabeth out to hold one of many baby bunnies, pet a lama or baby sheep, see the dear and the peacock at the mini-farm.
\nYou were pretty much STUCK to Auntie Amy, Elisabeth or Oma the whole week. I saw you every once in a while ;), but you were much more interested in adventuring out away from me. It was so fun to watch you so joyful and adventuresome!<\/p>\n

Here are some fun pictures to remember the event:
