Summer Vacations!!

So we have finally updated our blog. It has been a long time coming. This past summer not only did we have great visitors, but we also got to go on some great vacations as well. It started out with the Jaussi Family Reunion at the Westergard's cabin. Now, these pictures are not in order.
On the drive back to Colorado, we drove through Farson and stopped to have ice cream. Growing up we often stopped here to grab ice cream. This is their 2 scoop ice cream which is their small. They go up to 4 scoops. Megan says she will never get 2 scoops again.

This trip was so fun and exciting that it wiped us all out especially Eliza.

There were canoes, kayaks, jet skis, four wheelers, and the motor boat. Plenty of things to occupy our time.

And of course, smothering the newest member of the family, Makia.

A Jaussi Family tradition is stopping by Big Judd's to have lunch. Big Judd is famous for 1 lb hamburgers, which nobody gets. :) Don't we look cute in our matching shirts?

Our other great adventure took us to Florida. My sister Liz and her husband Dave adopted their first little girl Jessica. The family all came together for the sealing of Jessica to her family. First stop, Orlando. One day was spent at Universal Studios Island Adventure.

Harry Potter land at Universal Studios. This was by far the best part of the whole park and most popular. The set and buildings were amazing.

There were great ways to immerse yourselves into the World of Harry Potter like drinking Butterbeer (cream soda with butterscotch topping) and lunch at the 3 Broom Sticks.

Second stop, Jupiter. Liz and Dave took us letter boxing. Basically, people post clues on line that lead you to hidden boxes that have stamps in them. When you find you stamp your book with the stamp in the box and use your stamp to mark the book in the letter box.

If you go to Florida you have to experience the ocean or at least the inlet right next to the ocean. We got to see a bunch of neat fish!

Ok, this is back up in Orlando, but we went to Downtown Disney. Megan did not mean to wear this shirt to Downtown Disney. We stopped at the lego store. The dragon behind us is made of legos which is awesome! All and all we had a pretty amazing summer.
