July 2014

Zebulun and I got back to Minot from TN on June 26th. We spent 3 days there. Just enough time to wash clothes, rest a min, repack, and have a popsicle!

 We left EARLY(4am) to drive down to Rapid City to stay with Christopher for a week, since he had a 4 day weekend for the 4th of July. We had just had a lot of rain so the road was flooded in 2 places on our drive down.
 But South Dakota is sooo beautiful! Love the Black Hills!
 Bear Butte
 We got there around 11am so we played in the hotel till daddy got home from flying.

 We went and bought a van that week!!
2014 Honda Odyssey


 
 And of course it was way past time for Zebulun to get a new carseat!
  Tops In Blue!! Great show!



 Zebulun did so good for almost all of it. He was clapping and "dancing"/wiggling.

Dinosaur Park




 Picnic lunch and splash pad in Main Street Square





 A cute little toy store in downtown Rapid City.


 3rd of July BBQ with some friends from the squadron at our hotel (Cambria Suites)
 4th of July!!



  
 What Mt. Rushmore was suppose to look like if they had been able to finish it. (George's coat and Abe's hand)
 What the mountain looked like pre-construction.
 Crazy Horse Memorial...way too expensive to go to for a memorial that's no where near finished! so here's the drive by!
 After that we headed over to Storybook Island park!





 Sweet Piglet!
 Lost in the maze


 The next day we drove over to Wall, SD. The famous-ish Wall Drug Store.

 Getting milkshakes!
 And drove thru the Badlands




 Zeb slept most of it


 When he woke up, we got out and hiked a little bit but it was 92 degrees that day.




 Disappointed...this was the only Tatanka we saw!
 Fun times before bedtime! Blessed!





 Air and Space Museum. Zebulun flying...what can I say, it comes natural to him?!!

 The wheel of a B-52
 Back on the home front the grass needs cutting
 Just some random pictures of the rest of July. Zebulun and I were in Minot while Chris was in Rapid City/Las Vegas.
