Awww...looks like an amazing day! I'm definately jealous!
What a fun day!
After watching the Bears get trounced I wish I was with ya'll.
Sounds like a glorious day!
That sounds like a Dad/Papa comment about the Bears...are you anonymous Dad? Yes, it's bad we don't get the Bears, but it's good we don't get the Bears. I like them in small doses.
Plus, if they were on...we would have stayed home to watch them on a really awesome day and it would have been a disappointment from what the scoreboard was telling us. (Of course Matt was checking scores while we were 2280 ft. in the air...LOL!)
Nice PTMD reference;)
beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! but it makes me nervous just looking at these pics. haha.
HAHAHAHAHAHA I CANT STOP LAUGHING AT ALL THE PICTURES OF LANE!!!!!!
I'm so glad you had such a beautiful day and beautiful place to spend it all together!
