This One's for Kimmy!

North Dakota Car Races!

Kimmy would say that we were dirtbags for an evening since we went to the car races in Dickinson. :) I actually had a lot of fun and wouldn't mind doing it again!

Vacation - Part 3

The last part of our vacation brought us back to ND to spend some time on the Farm and a Kuhn wedding in Bismarck. Nadia loved riding on the 4 wheeler and yelling for her new friend, Buddy.

We went to Bismarck on Friday and took Nadia to the zoo. Dana and Dawn came with us. It was fun to see Nadia's reactions to all of the animals!

Darren's cousin, Jocelyn got married on Saturday and we all had a blast! It's hard not to have fun with that many Kuhns. :) We decided to let Nadia stay at the dance as long as she was in a good mood. She loved chasing all of the other kids and dancing.

Nadia and I stayed at my friend, Dannette and her husband, Zach's house on Friday night. They took us out on the river on Saturday morning and we spent the morning on the sandbar. Dannette has a 9 month old girl, Taylor who is a doll!

Nadia's dance skills...although you may have a hard time concentrating on Nadia with Dawn getting down in the background!

Summer Vacation Part 2

After pretending we were in high school again, we packed up the minivan and headed south to Hot Springs. We made one pit stop along the way as Nadia had a sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa Kuhn's and kept going south. Thank God for the minivan!

We spent a lot of time with family and doing some touristy things in the Black Hills. Nadia got to see the Flintstones Park for the first time. She liked riding the train, but liked the regular park the best. Go figure!

Erick, Heather, Darren and I went to Cascade Falls one afternoon to do some cliff jumping...that's how I remember Cascade Falls. Well, the cliffs aren't really cliffs but Erick and Darren did a few dives into the water.

We also spent some time in the pool that YaYa bought for Nadia and any other grandbabies that come along in the future. :)

Summer Vacation Part 1

Every 5 years my high school has an All Class Reunion back in Hazen, N.D. This was the first leg of our 3 part vacation. We kicked it off in true Hazen fashion with some beer and Fleischkuechle.

We had so much fun seeing family and old friends! What is it about reunions that make you feel like you're back in your younger days still? We were out until 2 or 3 a.m. each night! I think we have finally recovered after 3 days.

Summer time!

Last week was a LONG week in the Kuhn house. I had Bronchitis and Strep Throat and it knocked me out for about a week. Darren was Mr. Mom and I have to say did a great job! Thankfully, I was feeling better for Father's Day to give him a break. Lisa and Megan helped out and took Nadia for a night as well...THANK YOU!!

Did you notice Darren's hat in the picture? Nadia pitches a FIT when he takes it off. He tries to take it off when she isn't looking but she walks right up to him and says 'hat.'

We tried to take Nadia to a little beach by our house, but she wasn't too impressed. We came home and let her swim in her pool which she liked much better.

I think potty training is getting closer to reality. Nadia tells us that she has to go poopy, but is scared of the toilet. This is me and Minny singing "Pee Pee in the Potty." She at least sat there, but no go!

Target Field

We finally made it to a game at the new stadium! What a difference a 'real' stadium can make. We went to the game on Friday night with the newlyweds and Saturday with Darren's cousin Corey and family.

Nadia made it through her first game and had a lot of fun people watching, yelling at Uncle Dion and counting during pitches.

She also had fun with her cousin Ashton. He is all boy and she is all girl so the adults all had fun watching the tantrums and cat fights.

Wedding

Another fun Kuhn wedding is in the books! Dion and Laura were married on May 29th and it was a beautiful day.

Nadia started to get sick on our way to ND and it kept getting worse. By Saturday, she had the flu and wasn't able to show off her dance skills that she has been practicing. Thankfully, my parents were there and took great care of our sick little girl while we had fun. Here are a few pics from the big day...
